    There used to be some sort of factory there (building buses or motor homes I think) and when that shut down the town sort of started dying.
    Many of the cities out that way have really declined: la junta, las Animas, etc. if you want cheap housing in CO, it can be had out that way.

    Born and raised in La Junta, my folks still live there, shit hole to say the least, I was happy when my brother purchased a house in Pueblo West, so we could all meet there, that is saying something, because Pueblo isn?t known for being the greatest place either.

    Obviously, I'm not really competing as much as I'll be auditing the match with a pass or fail, but still...

    I am looking forward to seeing how my skills translate & if @ all.

    Plus I am going to learn so much just showing up & watching everyone else first.
