Hey everybody! I want to make the effort to keep in touch with everyone because all of you were like family to me for the past few years. I'm a little bummed that I left before the christmas party but I think I'll get over it. So far things are going well and I was welcomed with near 0 degree temps. Today it should be getting up to 35 degrees which is closer to normal. On my way out I stopped in Knoxville and Kansas to break things up a bit and arrived in Golden on the 5th, just missing the bad weather. After a couple days there I drove to Lyons, just north of Boulder, where I think I'm gonna settle for a couple years. Lyons was one of the hardest hit towns during the flood and there are a lot of job opportunities to help rebuild. We'll see if I can land a good job. My cousin is a firefighter here and he and the department are regarded as heros because their quick actions saved a lot of people. Listening to some of the stories really make you reflect on what you do with your life. So hanging out with them is not only an honor but has a lot of pull to get me in touch with the right people. Also, it's a volunteer station, so if my job here allows enough time I'm going to join the ranks soon.
I'll keep updating this thread occassionally in hopes that it will coerce some of you to come visit me some time. Here are some pics; After Golden that's Steamboat Mountain heading out of Lyons, then some pics from the house I'm staying in. The deer couldn't see into the window.
