We lived in Fort Collins five and a half wonderful years. We have lived in ranchland two months. Already ranchland feels like home. I still hold an insanely sweet spot in my heart for this city and especially all of my friends here. But I feel like I am just visiting Fort Collins. Which I am. With no homesick feeling about leaving here. Today we wandered around downtown. Well, Hubby and I wandered while the children leapt about. While we wandered we came up with a list of things we love/miss about Fort Collins and a list of things we don't love/miss about Fort Collins. Here they are for your reading pleasure.
In no particular order the things we love/miss:
Friends!
Downtown
Amazing restaurants
Breweries
Tree lined streets
Good, healthy grocery stores
Bike lanes
Running into familiar people in random places
Trains rolling through downtown
Parks galore
Our homeschool group
Osprey

In no particular order the things we don't love/miss:
Inconsiderate bicyclists
Traffic
College students
Dirty, dirty hippies
Noise
Light pollution
I guess the things we don't love/miss are fairly typical of most cities. To be fair, without all of those annoyances, it would be too easy to take Fort Collins for granted. Thank you little big city for giving us all that you gave us and setting us free when we needed to go.
Bummed I missed you guys while you were here!! Loving seeing all of your adventures!!
