live anyway, it would be in Colorado.
We have the best weather—All four seasons. I live next
to the foothills, and a drive up in the Rockies is a cure for any ailment. I
can see the world famous Red Rock Amphitheater from my couch, and if the wind
is just right, we can hear the concerts. My immediate family is all here,
except for one sister who lives in Texas, poor soul. In addition to being a
retired teacher, I’m also a retired airline employee. So, when I need a change,
it’s so easy just to hop a plane and go to the beach.
