Ah, yes, Colorado, with the most refreshing air in the nation. Haven't found a beach there, yet, but I've been a regular visitor to Pikes Peak, Rocky Mountain National Park, Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, and Royal Gorge. Readers who have not been to Colorado should take a leisurely drive around the state—last trip took me nine days and included my first trip to the Air Force Academy.
