1. Walking from your house to a brewery.
Some people have to drive to a brewery?
2. 15 ski areas in your backyard.
Maybe we should rephrase that. 15 Colorado ski areas. This is one of those things that Denverites just can’t help but bring up to out-of-towners, often at points in a conversation that make us seem conceited or selfish. Oh, you’re commute to work only takes 20 minutes? ‘I can be at the biking trail in 15 minutes or down to Colfax & Broadway in 20. Yeah, on Saturdays I always wake up early enough that I-70 traffic never bothers me. I get up to the Keystone parking lot with plenty of time to have a Bloody Mary and cook a breakfast burrito on my Coleman before first chair.’
