Well at any rate, there are a lot of fucking awesome places to live, you just have to decide what you're willing to put up with. If I had my choice, I'd want to live near Grand Lake, on the western side of RMNP. Colorado is fucking awesome. Yeah, Denver's(et. al) crowded, but there are so many great places to go and soo much shit to do. Sure a lot of places have been run over with yups, but who cares? Live where you want, drink lots of wine, have sex with your partner often, and spend as much time as humanly possible in the woods.
One of my favorite spots in RMNP is in the Mummy Range. I don't know why I feel compelled to share that.
Whoa. I only got like 3 hours of sleep last night, so I'm disoriented and not as cranky as I should be.
Carry on.
