Re: Colorado Roll Call.
So anyone from the Springs, Denver, or Aurora area want to meet up and caravan up to Fort Collins? Trying to think of a central area to meet up at.

Re: Colorado Roll Call.
So far the meeting place for all third gens is at the park n ride off I25 and 120th, we are looking to start meeting up by 915 and roll out at about 945 so we can get to ft collins by 11. Man my car is most likely gonna look the crappiest of the bunch. Definately not looking forward to that. *sigh*

Re: Colorado Roll Call.
Its honestly very easy... 120th st exit, take a left crossing the interstate to the west and its on the left side. There is a little Conoco gas station on the left. Swing a u-turn at the light and make a right turn into where all the cars are parked... Just keep your eyes out for 120th!

Re: Colorado Roll Call.
i wish i could say, but i have never actually looked haha. i need a new headlight tension spring so i may be down there this weekend and i can look. the best way i can explain it is its south of the world arena. If you head south on US-87 its the first left after you go over I-25 and its like the third building down in the little area

Re: Colorado Roll Call.
I know Las Vegas Rd is in that area because when I was stationed at Ft. Carson, I had to buy a door glass for our Ford Aerostar due to the incredible high winds that roll down Cheyenne Mountain. Just out of the gate that leads to Academy Blvd was Las Vegas rd. But who knows. It may help others but definetaly not me. I live in SoCal now.

Re: Colorado Roll Call.
The videos of it burning houses one after another last night was seriously the craziest thing I have seen on TV. The fire outside Fort Collins is almost 90K acres, and clsoe to 300 homes in two weeks, and I would bet 300 burned last night.

Re: Colorado Roll Call.
yeah we had 10,000 trying to leave our neighborhood. So far the fire is blowing past most of my area and is heading more towards USAFA and Douglas County but Woodland Park is now evacuated as well. I would really love to have a meet up and even a caravan after all this is over. Hanging out with all the thirdgens and showing what we got sounds great, it'll be a shining light in these darker times.

Hope everyone is doing alright. that fire was some scary ****. I was a 1/4 mile away when it started coming over the ridge by mountain shadows. I hope I never have to see anything like that again. I still don't know if my girlfriend's house is even standing.
