Who was that guy whose girlfriend hadn't ever seen a mountain?

Met my wife in Austin TX, the first time she has ever stepped foot in Colorado or seen the Rockies, was the week we came here looking for a house. She said she will never go back. Her family dates back to the Daughters of the Republic of TX. Most of her family thought she was crazy for leaving..... until they come to visit!

Most of my relatives that come to visit don't want to leave, either. Until we take them for a "walk" around the property.

After 15 minutes of no oxygen they can't wait to leave. Works every time!

I grew up in TX. There were several LAKES within an hour of the house. I haven't seen a "lake" in CO, just big ponds.

Have you been to Blue Mesa ? 9 miles long, 375 ft. deep at the dam. thats a lot of water.

That's a reservoir, not a lake.

most of the "bodies of water" in Colorado are reservoirs

man-made = reservoir

don't even get me started on Alaska... Minnesota brags about 10,000 lakes?

We use the same approach to keeping our relatives from moving here.
