It looks as if if my time in the Keys is coming to an unfortunate end. Personal reasons are forcing me back to Colorado in the near future.
I’m just waiting for my old job to officially give me a start date. I’ve all but been hired just waiting to clear HR blah blah blah. Oh and based on the packet of paperwork I received in the mail yesterday apparently I’m getting divorced as well. So if anyone has a lead for a rental, preferably in the western suburbs of Denver I’m all ears. F M L |

I really like it but down here ce la vie I suppose. I’m hoping to someday buy a condo down here and airB&B it when I’m not using it. That is if I don’t take a complete financial ass kicking. |

Really sorry to hear it didn't work out (both the move and your relationship)

Quoted: Quoted: You're moving to Denver on purpose? The fuck is wrong with you? Yup JLP is correct. I’m moving back to the Denver area. However my first day back at my old job I’m putting in a transfer to the western slope. Either Rifle or GJ. I don’t care either way. |

The worst areas that I have seen are by capital hill and by Coors field. Looks like a cross between a trash dump and used RV storage area.

GJ ain’t as bad as JL claims. You just have to pick a good place.
Rifle is cool, and the only place I have seen a bar bathroom with a sign on the door, “NO DRUG DEALING IN BATHROOM”. |

I would pick GJ over Sapp Bros any day or the year. But I agree, Rifle above GJ.

I thought I'd add.....
Although we can all dump on Denver, and I'm one of the 1st in line to start dumping on Denver..... It's still a great state. I had to work up in Eagle yesterday. Sunny Spring day, real pretty. Stopped to fish the Eagle river on the way home. 4 casts, caught a nice Brown, let him go, and got back in the truck to drive home. Lots of good places in the state. Stay positive! |

Sorry to hear about everything going on.
You and I lived in the same neighborhood years ago, so as you know, rentals aren't going to be cheap. Is your "new" job giving you a living expense stipend or anything? I left Golden 3 years ago and bought a beautiful place here in KY. I still get homesick for CO, but threads like this remind me of why I left. The Golden/Denver area are not the same place that I remember. |

Dang. Sorry to hear about the divorce. Hopefully you can get transferred to the Western Slope!

Sorry to hear! Florida sounds pretty nice, especially after this long winter.
Hope you make it out to the Western slope, it's the best. |
