THE FRANK FAMILY....LOL!! :rollin: If hockey is your passion, Boston Bruins(NHL) are 1 hr away, then there is the Red Sox(MLB), Patriots (NFL), and Celtics(NBA). I have heard great things about Colorado. Even considered moving there. It sounds good. Jennifer

But you never know, things could change in the time it takes to save up a deposit, we could end up anywhere. Hey Rissa I was born & raised in Colorado Springs, so if I can give you any help/advice on that front please just ask. It truly is a beautiful place to live, although you must have vast patience... getting around that town can and will be a zoo most of the time. The town grew too fast and the city planners have not done a very good job of keeping up with the infrastructure. It is an exercise in patience whenever I go home. I love Colorado more than I can ever put into words and miss it all the time, so let me put a vote for moving there. :goodonya: Coleen

However, I do remember having trouble getting around when hubby and I drove through on our roadtrip; I couldn't seem to find Templeton Gap road. :headscratch:
