Well, no wonder Santa didn't bring you that new Z06 for Xmas. He knows that things such as this occur in areas a mile above the rest of the world. Bet ya don't get a lotta hurricanes or earth quakes tho....

Actually, the house is on the US Geological Survey Map and she interpolates to 7930' in altitude, Mike. That makes it a mile and a half high here... But, our mountains peak at just below three miles high, so we look at it as a 'happy' medium!

Bet that's a pretty sight.... from inside the house. Too cold to be outside there now for me though. We're about 11 feet here. Sometimes -11 feet in hurricane season.

Colorado is a beautiful state.

Jack,

Why do you think I retired in FL? 21 years of the white stuff did me in, plus my snow shoveler (der Mrs.) is slowing down on me!

There's nothing like putting the top down on the '66 and taking a cruise up in the Rockies. I spent 22 yrs in the USAF, living in great places all over this country and in my humble opinion, nothing compares to Colorado. I'll take the occasional blizzard (ok, 2 in a week is more than occasional) over hurricanes, tornados or earthquakes (I grew up in SoCal) anytime.

Here in the SW mntns Of Colo. Were up to 3 feet so far. (Supposed to snow till Sun.) Were at 8500ft, located a the base of Continental Divide w/(10) 13K Mnts in the backyard. Sound of music country. Be awhile before any rides get out, let alone us. As John Belushi said "So Quiet ya can hear a mouse fa--."
