Now let's see, what do we have here in Colorado Springs.

FOR
A reasonable Library
an Art's center, or two if you include Manitou Springs.
A few theatres
A view of Pikes Peak
several farmers markets in season
a whole load of thrift stores - which is a must for any town.
Way too many Mexican Restaurants
A couple of Indian restaurants and quite a few others of differring cuisines - Except English unfortunately.
A good song writers club
Lots of sunshine and blue skies
plenty of snow in winter.
A couple of good Music stores plus a couple of big ones
An observatory at the Airforce Academy


AGAINST

loads of poles and potholes
The sea is half a continent away
Just way too many military personnel - individually they are fine but the sheer numbers really play hell with the crime rate.
