I get to add one.
You know your in BOULDER when;
The lady on the trail above you is crying because she is not sure the tree she wants to hug is going to accept her.

I'm not joking either. It happend to my family and I. We were in the little park at the intersection of Old Stagecoach road and Lefthand canyon rd.

There was 20 of them and some weird dude in a white robe. They all met for a bit then started walking to trees. They put their hands up like the trees were hot, then started toughing them. Eventually, they hugged them. I was taking a leak on a tree and happend to turn around to hear some lady crying about 20' behind me (no they couldn't see me). Another lady comes up and tells her to go ahead, it will be ok. The tree will accept you! I watched a minute. The lady would go up and put her hands up, then step back. She was totally serious that the tree wasn't going to take her..... I wanted to [roll] my butt off.

I loaded the family up and left asap...

OK. The get back on Topic.

I will add to the list.

You know your from Colorado when...

"You can find the Valley Highway and the Boulder Turnpike on a map"

(or know where they are when someone talks about them)

"You can drive in the snow without 4WD"

"You know that Golden was the Capital and not just the home of Coors"

"You actually know what that big "M" is for when you drive to the mountains"

"You know that Central city isn't a theme park built around casinos"

The list could go on.

folks make me feel bad, left CA 13 years ago and not going back. Wish there were jobs in my field in WY, I would never have left. See, some of the CA migrants are actually refugees.

I keep wondering whwnver the mass layoffs happen where I'd end up. I hope here, Idaho or texas but never know. Suppose after a year LFW I'd consider CA but would have to leave a safe with family here...
