Another reason to plan a trip to Denver

 (Well that is if to see us is not enough?)

I keep trying like a mad crazy woman to get anyone to come out and enjoy a Colorado summer with us, but my efforts have been unsuccessful.  I am always bragging and posting pictures about how incredible it is here in the summer and apparently I am not that crazy because a recent list by Travel and Leisure on "The Best and Worst Cities to Visit in the Summer" names Denver at the #2 spot on the BEST city list, just behind Portland and 2 spots ahead of San Diego!  On the other hand, Phoenix topped the list of the WORST cities to visit in the summer and we visit there every summer to see family?  I think family needs to start planning their summer trips to come see us, how much more convincing do you need!!!!

For a little more bragging on Colorado:

Today I was watching the news and found out that Colorado was dead LAST on a recent list of The Most Obese States in the U.S. This does not come as a surprise to us as this place is active all year!  The climate is considered mild and dry allowing for outdoor activities year round and people who live here take advantage of it.  Hiking, fishing, camping, biking, kayaking, river rafting, skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, yoga in the park, walking dogs and so on.

Every where you go around here you find families doing activities outside together, keeping kids away from TV and video games and most important from obesity!!!
