The Sand Dunes are a phenomenon to behold. Think Sahara Desert with the Rockies as a backdrop! Awesome!!!! They are an hour or two from Colorado springs as memery serves me. (I last went there in 1991 so my memory is a bit fuzzy)

Someone mentioned Casa Bonita in Denver- Take in the show, its hokey, but DONT eat the food! I worked there for all of one shift as a server and unless they have changed the menu you can get better mexican food out of the frozen food section of a supermarket. The place is bizarre and huge though.

I also enjoyed Dinosaur National monument near Grand Junction, but that is far west.

Just about anywhere in the Rockies is beautiful in the spring and summer.

There is a town near Colorado Springs, I believe it is called Manitou springs. The water there has natural Lithium in it. It is a scenic little place with funky but cool tasting water and lots of little trails to the woods. You can reach one side of Pikes Peak from there.

I love Colorado! It sure is Purty! [img]smile.gif[/img]
