Good morning, my friend! I wanted to let you know that Colorado is my native state. I was born in Oak Creek, Colorado, and I grew up in the Craig, Colorado area. Back in those days my family and I did a lot of camping and fishing on the western slopes of the Colorado Rockies. My Dad was an avid hunter of Colorado Mule Deer. Both he and I, and many of my Uncles, and both of my Grandfathers, worked in underground coal mines in Northwest Colorado.
