50 State Series: Colorado

Colorado is one of my favorite states to visit. I always say I would love to live there, but at the very least I would love to take my kids one day. I have been several times with my high school choir. We had a ski-music festival there and were able to do our competition and then enjoy some time skiing. I have dreamed of going back ever since.

This week, I am sharing more than just the ski slopes and resorts with you. Each state has a history, fun facts and wonderful sites to see. Over the next year, I will be sharing resources – printables, travel destinations and food favorites from each state.
