A-Z Challenge: C is for...

This one is easy- COLORADO!  My home, the place I was born and grew up, where my heart will always be!  Oh how I long to live back in Colorado. 

I was born in Denver on a Sunday morning when the Broncos were playing the San Diego Chargers.  My Mom procrastinated on getting to the hospital and I was born 10 minutes after she arrived there.  The doctor jokingly told her that she was just in a hurry to deliver me so she could still watch the game that afternoon.  Am I still a Broncos fan...YES I AM!

It's hard to pick a favorite location there, because there are so many great places to visit.  I love, love, loved living in Fort Collins while I attended Colorado State University and that would be the place I would live if I could choose to live anywhere.  Well, maybe not right in the city, but one of the smaller rural communities surronding Fort Collins.

  2. Sounds like a beautiful place, never been. I don't know why maybe because i was born on the east coast I tend to stick to visiting the states on in this area. Must branch out a bit!

    I've traveled quite a bit but haven't made it to Colorado. My mom lived there for a while and loves it too. I must visit one day!!

  6. I like your birth story, how sweet! I've never been to the US (unless you count the 2 hours I spend in Miami while changing planes!) but have heard such lovely things about Colorado!

    Have a lovely day!
