basking

Fort Collins, Colorado

Fort Collins is a delightful, vibrant town of just over 140,000 people, about 20% of them university students...it basks in sunshine on average 300 days per year, and sits on grasslands near the eastern edge of the Rocky Mountains...the downtown area features many preserved buildings dating back to the late 19th century, is very bicycle-friendly, and has a good selection of shops, restaurants, and micro-breweries

Looks like a charming place to live, away from the madding crowd. Micro-breweries you say? V

Nicely captured, David. Yes, a nice little city. I have relatives there and always enjoy the opportunity to visit.

Micro breweries are always good. Nice looking downtown. Sounds a little like Corvallis in Oregon. V

Nice publicity from you, but thanks, I'll pass on living here...too much sunshine for my moody personality.
