Well, yeah, John Denver is pretty corny but I couldn't help the tune of Rocky Mountain High from slipping into my brain when I got close to this state. This was the beginning of a five month camping trip around the states and Colorado was looming right before me like a dream. Man, I was going to the Rockies! I grew up in Philadelphia and had never been exposed to nature, a real city boy. I was later introduced to hiking in Ontario and had fallen in love with it in New Zealand. When I was traveling, everyone asked me about California and Colorado, and I couldn't tell them anything as I'd never been west of Ohio. Well, this was a trip to rectify that. But it wasn't just about seeing a place, it was about capturing feeling, a yearning to find something in my own country that made me feel the same as I'd felt when abroad. Colorado would be that and much more as I would soon find out. |

I used to live in Nederland and Boulder, these pics bring back so many memories...is there any place more beautiful? | matcrazy1 Sat Jan 22, 2005 19:59 UTC
Beautiful pictures of the Rocky Mountains. I visited only southwestern corner of Colorado with Mesa Verde NP. So, I have to see a lot there. |
