Life at 6000 Feet
By Tiki Steve | February 12, 2012
The best dog in the world:
I’ve spent the last few months at about the 6000 foot level in Colorado. I haven’t really lived anyplace for two-and-a-half years.
The sun’s rays are more direct here. It’s about 8 degrees south in latitude from Minneapolis. The thin atmosphere doesn’t filter out the sun’s rays as much, so the sunshine is more intense. It is also sunnier here. We have only had snow on the ground for about a total two weeks this winter. It normally snows and then melts right away. Denver gets a lot more snow than this place does. I don’t know how much longer I’ll stay here.
