Colorado Weather

In the sun it’s boiling hot; In the shade it’s cold. Don’t think I complain a lot Just because I’m old. My two brothers live here; one Loves all the mountains’ range Of weather, from when snow’s begun In summertime, so strange. The other doesn’t live so high; It’s warmer but still crazy. One minute there’s a clear blue sky; Next minute, all is hazy. The temps they toggle up and down By varying degrees And when you’re in a mountain town, Just be prepared to freeze. It‘s hard to know how one should dress With fluctuations so. This weather can cause mucho stress Unless you let it go.

"Rocky Mountain High" is no joke! I hope you packed thermal underwear, but remember the Native Americans were half-naked, so you will survive! Aloha!

I am amazed at how many people like Colorado weather. OTOH, I have a friend who moved out there for a year, built a home, etc., then decided they couldn't handle it, so they moved back to Kentucky. Who knows!
