Coloradoâs Olympic history makes for good reading. As a young boy growing up in Denver at the time, a couldnât understand why the games were rejected. Now after reading about the realities of the proposal it was for the best.

Wow, well done đ

Colorado is an amazing state. Iâm a city girl and mountains freak me out BUT Colorado is worth it! ⤠I went in the fall and visited 4 or 5 towns and the beauty was jaw dropping đŽ. The colors of the đ˛, we were able to see snow âď¸ and even got a little hail but it was all worth seeing the beauty of this state. I was cold and hot in one day from the mountain top to the valley, we got it all in Colorado. â¤â¤â¤â¤

Guys I do really love visiting Colorado in fall on day⌠thank you for your video

Great video! I first visited CO when I was 12. I fell in love with it. I moved to Colorado in 2015. It took some time for my body to get acclimated to the atmosphere and cold. I live in Southern Colorado desert region so it stays warmer than most parts of Colorado.

So much for mountain climbing in Arkansas!

Sorry this comment has nothing to do with this video. I really enjoy you videos and have been watching many of them as I have a wonderfully long trip to the west coming up in September (from Indiana). You are a great source of info. The real purpose of this note is to ask if you recommend the National Museum of the Wildlife Art? I have been there and think it is truly incredible. Hope you will add it to your âmust seeâ list. Thanks for all your hard work. Sue
