The ocean is a key point for sure. Go south inColorado and you have the sand dunes and the indigenous housing carved into the rock walls, go east and you have the prairies and grasslands, go halfway west and there is the Rocky Mountains, go further west and it’s landscape mimics that of the desert with the high erosion canyons. Also, can’t sleep on Red Rocks amphitheater and Denver’s culinary options. We also have 54 mountains that are above 14,000 feet that provide views that CGI can’t even match.

Yep. All good points, except the culinary options in Denver since I just assumed we were talking about nature or geography. I have been to every tourist attraction within the state except Mesa Verde, but that's just another excuse for me to visit and drive through CO again! 💚

If we're talking about culinary options, I believe Bay area or LA will have far more than Denver, since the cities have people from literally almost every country because of Tech or Hollywood. Again, CA isn't even in one of my top three states, but that's just going to be true for huge metropolitan areas.

Fair enough :)
