Thank you kindly, Dave for making my day. I'm grateful that you're keeping in touch. Going by all the correspondence we've had during the last year or so, I can tell you're a gentle soul. I hope you'll stop by from time to time.

Sweet Fiona, you're correct. Colorado is truly an incredible place : 54 mountains higher than 14000 feet and more than 750 summits higher than 13000 feet. It is a land of unsurpassed beauty, wonder and drama. With a land area of about 104000 square miles, Colorado is the 8the largest state in the U.S. That makes Colorado 6 times the size of Switzerland and more than double the size of Greece which is about 50000 sq. mi.

I thank you, John, kind sir.
