meatball, if you get the chance, really head up to teh boulder area and go hiking in rocky mountain national park. It's such a beautiful area.

THere is also the famous stanley hotel to check out for a night if you want to possibly run into some ghosts. It's known for being haunted, and Stephen King spent a lot of time there when he wrote the Shining, and the overlook hotel is based on his experiences in the Stanley. It's been too long since I've been to boulder/estes park, but, it's definitely worth taking the diversion while the weather still may be decent to check out some stuff you can't see anywhere else. If the weather isn't that agreeable, then at least spend some time walking around boulder, it's just such a great town and has one of the more interesting feels to it, especially for a college town
