I am seriously thinking of a visit to the great state of Colorado next year. It would make a nice road trip vacation. However, rather than Spring, I am now thinking of starting my visit as soon as the next school year starts - late August to early September.
Suggestions for places of interest are welcome. We enjoy nature, history, small town festivals, and such. I imagine we will spend a few days in Denver, but our focus will be the entire state.
I love Boulder, Telluride, and Estes Park on the East side.
Moab & Arches NP are awesome on the West side.
My brother lived in Denver, Aurora, and Fort Collins and is buried in Estes Park... so I've spent more time on the east side.
