Ah, Colorado…home to all-around amazing people, tasty brews, and purple mountain majesties…What else can a person possibly need?! Well, if you’re a Coloradoan, you may also need:
1. A reliable shovel
Brace yourself, Colorado; the first big storm of the season is upon us and with that comes inches upon inches (or foot upon foot, in some areas) of white powder. If you haven't already, do yourself a favor and invest in a sturdy, heavy duty shovel...You will thank me later!
2. Green chili
It's pork; it's chili; it's all the major food groups in one!
3. Watching the sunset behind the mountains.
There is NO better way to end the day!
4. Adventure
Lucky for us, there is never a shortage of things to do/places to explore in the Centennial State--which is great, considering we cannot stay still for long periods of time!
5. A picture perfect camping spot
Speaking of adventure, there is nothing quite as freeing as pitching a tent and enjoying the great outdoors! That being said, Colorado is full of gorgeous camping spots, perfect for a weekend outing.
6. A trusty sidekick
For most, it's a loyal dog. For a select few (like myself), it's a cat who plots your death while you sleep.
7. Instagram
Because, mountains. And sunsets. And green chili.

13. Most importantly, we couldn't live without our Colorado pride!
After all, we do live in the greatest state of all!
