Hi Indigo - that actually sounds really awesome. I haven't been to Colorado, but it sure looks beautiful, and I can totally imagine how the less populated parts would be really especially lovely.
And I'm sort of jealous, because you know where you want to go, and you're already in the right state! (Moving within a state should be less trouble than moving to another state).
Planning isn't bad a thing. Good luck with it!!! I'm actually a little excited for you now!
