City Girl, born and bred
I grew up in south Denver--only 2 to 3 blocks from the Valley Highway, now known as I-25. Through the years I have lived in and around Denver, as well as in smaller towns, like Boulder, Castle Rock, Oconomowoc, WI, Mesa, AZ, and Gold Canyon, AZ. During our years of RVing, we also lived in places like Cannonville, Utah, and Walsenburg, Colorado and Wamic, Oregon. I loved RVing and learning about life in small towns. But I am really a city girl. We are now living in an apartment in Lone Tree, Colorado, on the south side of Denver. And this is truly city living. On our morning walk the other day, we saw this concrete pumping activity for a soon-to-be parking garage and apartment house. Our current zip code is almost entirely filled with apartments buildings. It is so interesting! In Wamic, I would wake up and see cows out the bedroom window. Here our windows open on an interior courtyard, but any time we leave the building, we see people, shops, and construction.
