Observation:
Living in Colorado is like living amongst animated REI manequins. Everyone is more crunchy than I am. Which doesn't take that much. People are tanned, and toned. They talk of fourteeners. They call carabeaners--beaners, and use them to prevent themselves from falling off mountains, not to lash their keys to their backpacks.
They have roof racks that are in near constant use. They haul and tote and carry things that help them haul and tote and carry other things up mountains. People drive SUVs because they need to. There are nearly no overweight people here. I saw a woman who at most was 20 lbs overweight while canvassing and it was shocking. People do things like open and maintain viable bike stores. It's a strange place. Good. But strange.
