Colorado--Yes, we have snow year round...in the mountains. We don't all ride horses to school, the store. except maybe on the farms, you CAN water ski/jet ski here, You can have all four seasons in one day here but only in the spring, many people have bicycles on their cars that cost more than the cars, we do wear shorts and parkas in certain cold weather, DIA is the airport and it doesn't mean "Doesn't Include Airplanes". Blizzards do happen and they will cramp our style but only for a couple of days. There are many more but the most important thing to me is that I don't think I would want to live anywhere else.
