Our Big Move

Recently my family made a big move.
We packed up and left Bellingham, Washington.
After spending a few months in Colorado, we realized that we'd been missing out on sunshine, beauty, and fun. All the while we'd been up in Washington, waiting for a summer that basically never came! All we got up there was clouds and rain.
So, we took a little road trip to explore Colorado and New Mexico looking at towns we might want to live in. Santa Fe: too hot and dry. Taos: same deal. Telluride: we wouldn't be able to start a
farm there. Crestone (a small, cute town) too...in-the-middle-of-nowhere. Denver: no consideration involved. Too crowded!!
Then we came across a town near Aspen. It was perfect: great farming area, flat (for biking), enough sun, rain and snow, awesome place for skiing, nice community, cool schools, and a
gorgeous view of Mt. Sopris. We all loved the town (that I like to call Onnie), and we're in the process of moving here. I'm so excited!
