I just moved to Colorado
Got here on Friday, connected on Tuesday. What should I know that I don't already? I know I haven't been around for a while, but anyone who was here back in the hell days just might remember me.

2.  Colorado stole all its big mountains from Texas. That's why Texas is so flat now.
Texas hasn't forgotten and still wants the mountains back

4. A few of the state's best kept secrets...
The Great Sand Dunes National Monument and the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Monument, both in the southern part of the state. Both are spectacular! And, if you're into fossils, check out Florissant Nat. Mon.

BTW, it would help if we had some idea of what you DO know... ;-)

5. Welcome to Colorful Colorado!
What part are you in? If you're in Denver-metro, there's all kinds of great summer stuff do to. And from GCG, the Black Canyon of the Gunnison is a treasure of a place. Lately, I'm a fan of the Buena Vista/Cottonwood Pass area - beautiful area to see.

Enjoy being here & reach out if you need an assist with anything around the metro - I've lived here all my life.

:hi:
