Okay so have you ever lived somewhere for a long time and you leave and realize there was so much you meant to do but never did? I’m committed to living here for at least through May of next year and I’ve compiled a list of things I must do before I leave. These are just things I knew about already or with a little research but I would welcome any other suggestions! This could include things in Denver (I didn’t really start a list of places to eat because I’m afraid how big that would get, but I’d still welcome suggestions) or day-trips like the Sand Dunes…I’ve wanted to go there for FOREVER.
If you come visit me, you can pick something off the list and we’ll do it!
Things to Do/Places to Visit while I Live in Colorado:
1. Visit Tattered Cover bookstore downtown.
2. Go to a concert at Red Rocks
3. Climb a 14er
4. Bike ride in the mountains (this Saturday 9/19!)
5. Great Sand Dunes National Park
6. Rocky Mountain National Park – camping?
7. Snowshoe
8. Visit Boulder
9. Take a scenic train-ride

I am proud to say that I’ve done 1, 10 and 13. Click on my name to check out my map of what I did on my solo day in Denver. Not a whole lot on there I know. Also this guide tells you about the public art you need to see while you’re downtown or around Denver: http://www.denvergov.org/Portals/239/documents/CountryGuide.pdf

P.S. flights are looking good on Southwest. it’s pretty much $99/one ways from now until March.

Thank you for not capitalizing the ‘g’ in ‘gods.’
