    I love Colorado Springs. We live in Missouri and it is about 10 hours from here so we have vacationed there around 20 times. We always find something new! Great article.

    I grew up in the Springs as locals call it. But I live in Denver now and love it - prefer it to C. Springs.

    Loved the Lens. I applied to Boulder Colorado, such a beautiful state to live in.
