Actually, I have relatives that live there and on the dryer east side
of the state. I have made that trip many times, in fact, I will be up
there the end of July.

Odd...and yet, you seem to think that we only have one kind of weather:
rainy.

Were you awake when you were here?

It does amaze me how the mountains affect the
climate so much that on the west side you get all the rain and on the
east side its like a desert.

It's not "like a desert". It IS a desert.

But, you dont have to worry about me moving up there. I like my
climate just where I am, having lived in MD, FL, TX, and CA, I like
the state of Colorado just fine.

Good for you. There's nothing worse than someone who doesn't like it where
they actually live.

Still, it boggles my mind that people see a need to criticize the weather
where they aren't, as if they require that so that they can feel good about
where they do live. Pick any place in the world, and there's someone who
would hate the weather there. Even Colorado.
