Colorado is a state that I have always been interested in living in, but I never had the opportunity to visit- until last week. Now, I am absolutely convinced that Colorado is better than Florida in every aspect.
1. It looks like this from above
...and Florida looks like this
Do you see what I see? No pools. No houses right smack next to each other. Open space and nature! This is all I need in my life.
2. Completely natural rivers!
Completely natural. Not man made. No mosquitoes. Just beautiful water straight from the Earth.
3. Going outside without melting
I haven't been able to enjoy nature in Florida without completely dying ten minutes in; at least not in May, but the weather in Colorado is so wonderful! 75 degrees with a nice breeze? Hasn't been like that in Florida since February (maybe March).
4. It looks like this before it rains
In Colorado, you can actually tell it's about to rain! Never does it start raining with the sun blazing high in the sky. My absolutely favorite part was the lack of extreme humidity after it rains (hair was still on point).
5. Hail just happens
I know for others this may not be the best thing ever, but being in Denver and watching the hail fall just reminded me of winter in New York. It's been a long time since I've seen snow (or anything snow like), it was a very nostalgic moment.
6. My Best Friend
My best friend in the whole world moved to Colorado after high school. I haven't seen him in eight months. I don't even know how to explain the feelings I got being with him again. It just felt like home. And I know for a fact anywhere where he is has to be the best place in the whole world.
