Its a dry land when its left alone. Don't get me wrong I like what the planners have done with the lattice of roads and the retail squares and housing estates dropped in to these lattices. I can not get over the difference from the dry countryside and the forced green pastures around the concrete estates and roads that is watered, at cool moments, by underground pipes.What would be barren and dry turns out to be healthy growth allowing more people to live in an environment more akin to Scotland than Cheyenne country.
Cheyenne Country, would you believe with all the construction and roads with retail parks its no wonder their is little sight of the Indians. (accept for the dance routine at Manitou dwellings on the west side of Colorado Springs carried out by drafted southern indians for the tourists.)
I picked up in the news, on my return, that a great brown bear had broken in to the " Ciricuit City" electrical superstore and set off the alarms its no surprise that nature and progress meet head to head in theis part of the country where land reclamation is essential.
Driving on the right side does take a bit to get used to but once you settle in there seems more time to make your manovers as the roads are long and wide.
