Colorado Springs it is....

Figures...I move out of CO and someone I want to meet moves in... :rolleyes:

And yes, there WILL be snow. :) More than you can handle at times. I know more about the Denver area than the Springs, so can't make specific suggestions, but I can say that it's very nice there, the state is a good one to live in, and you won't be too far from Denver for the quarterly reptile shows. :D Have fun!

Well Judy I guess this is the end of us meeting in Birmingham.:( But I am envious about the location though. I have always loved that part of the country. Best to you and yours on the move.:salute: And thank you for being a good military wife so hubby can serve our country.

My son's father is stationed there at Carson. He really likes it. We've only been out once to visit, but I thought it seemed like a nice place to live!

Not a bad place to be at all. :)

I was about to say the same, lol. Be prepared for snow in the winter ;). If you've ever been to Flagstaff (since I noticed you've lived in AZ a couple times), it's almost the exact same climate and elevation. Beautiful weather spring-fall. I only know this since my cousins have lived up there a couple years now.

Hope all goes well on the move! :gj: a very big :salute: to you and your hubby!

Well Judy I'm sorry you're going to be leaving our neck of the woods here in the south, but you'll always be a PM away i'm sure!

Hey, never actually posted on here before, but I live in the Springs. D20 has a great band program, Air Academy High School has an unbeatable band, they have won state 5 times.

If you have any more questions feel free to ask, lived here my whole life :)

Yea...you will be closer...maybe a trip to Tucson is in your future since you really liked it here. :D

Good luck with the move...military moving = no fun!! :rolleyes: But it is beautiful there and lots and lots to do!!

Thank you. Never made it to Flagstaff...we always lived in Tucson. It's definitely going to be a whole new climate and environment for us!

Thank you SO much for the video and the offer for more help! Because I'm sure I'll have tons of questions. Too tired to think of any at the moment, though. I'll shoot you a PM when I can collect my thoughts well enough to compose coherent questions that might have applicable answers. LOL

I showed that video to my daughter, who is going to be a senior and plays trumpet in the band. She's been to two different high schools already and is very sad to have to start over again for her SR year....but the video was a big lift to her that there are legitimate band programs available with the scale of talent she is used to performing in! :gj: (Of course...now she's laid down an ultimatum (tongue in cheek) and told me that if we can't get her into THAT particular school, she'll be devistated... :rolleye2: )

Thanks again for the very encouraging vid link!!
