The snow looks nice. It's the gun control in your state that's the negative.

We only got a dusting, everything went above or below us. It's shaping up to be another drought year by the looks for central Wyoming. I never even had to get my tractor out to clear snow this winter.

I was in Colorado last week for spring break. The air was so dry my nose bled every day and I had headaches from the thin air. It's not for me. Was there last May and it snowed! I'm good down here.

I'm at 6000 feet the snow accumulation has melted. This was from a few weeks ago. The forecast calls for snow this weekend which will probably fuck things up for my plum tree.

The question is not why did you move to the mountains, but rather, why did you move to anywhere in Colorado?
The good news is, if you're ever wanting an eight ball of meth, you've probably got a Walter White within a mile radius. |

Springtime in the Rockies--nice for a few days, winter will inevitably return. The biggest snows I've seen on the Front Range have been in October and April. Had a damaging snowstorm here in late May a few years ago.
