Need info for 'list' reposting!

Hi all,

Since everybody seemed to like it, Im planning to repost the "list," but this will probably be the last time for a long time, so IÂd like to get it as accurate as possible before I do it. As of right now, there are 76 people listed! There are still some people where I donÂt have very specific location info, so it youÂd like to narrow down your location a little better, let me know here so I can update the list before I post it.

For several of you I only have Denver, Colorado Springs, or Aurora as a location. Do any of you want to be more specific? i.e. North or south COS or Aurora, or near some major intersection that nearby RMG people would recognize. Or for Aurora, possibly something like "Old Aurora" if youÂre in the original Colfax/Havana-Peoria area, or give cross streets. Aurora goes all the way down into Douglas County on the south and up into Adams County on the north end these days!

Here are the names with questions:

lilacs of may Aurora

shadygarden co Aurora

peace rose DEN

rwaldheim ? Denver ?

maece COS

nancy in co COS

plantladyco COS

pookyspal COS

David52, I have you down as SW Colorado. Is your nearest town Dolores/Cortez, or are you closer to something else thatÂs on the map? ThatÂs recognizable! ;-)

Milehi, I show you 80 miles SE of Jali, but I donÂt think a lot of people besides Jali and I know where that is! Are you near Lamar or something else out that way?

Highalttransplant, am I right that you said you were in Silt? IÂll still leave the "between Glenwood & Rifle" in there too since Silt is so little!

Debitinco, do you want to narrow down "Western Slope" a little bit more with the closest town?

Debzcatz, I have you down as "Just moved to 6500'" but is that on the western slope or on the front range somewhere?

Robinco, all I have is Northern CO. Do you want to list a nearby town?

Stephinco, same thing. I just have "North of Denver." Want to narrow it down a little bit more?

Stevation, I have you in "Utah Valley," but are you near SLC, or closer to one of the other towns?

Linda utah, do you want to narrow down Utah a little bit more with a nearby town?

Digit, I have you listed as "Western Idaho near WA border." Want to add the nearest (recognizable--if there is one!) town?

Mthawki, I just have Montana. Want to add a town?

Catherine nm, I just have New Mexico. Want to add a town?

ThatÂs all the specific questions I have, but if any of you who were on the first list want to change anything, let me know here too. And there are a lot more names that arenÂt listed here that werenÂt on the first list but will be on the next listÂbut I have specific enough info for people to know where you are. If anybody wants to be sure theyÂre on the list, let me know here and IÂll check. AND, if anybody wants to be taken off the list, let me know here and IÂll do it!

IÂll wait a couple weeks to see how much info I can get here, and then IÂll post whatever I have!

Happy springing, all,

Skybird

P.S. I'm linking the original list in case anybody wants to see how they were posted the first time!

    I'm half way between Cortez and Dolores, our mailing address uses the Dolores zip, so thats fine.

    I gather Dave1949 is somewhere in Southern Colorado based on his post in the pepper thread.

    My best guess would be that Milehi is in the Lamar area, skybird.

    I don't think I told you the town I'm in. It's Farmington.

  • 19 years ago
    last modified: 11 years ago

    bp, I had you "Halfway between Ogden and SLC." Ill add Farmington, but leave the rest too for thoselike mewho dont know where that is. Thank you.

    *chirp* *chirp*I mean, Jali, I show David1949 in Ouray, and I dont have any question marks, so that must have come directly from him somewhere. And I agree. The most logical place for "80 miles SE" of you is Lamar, so Ill use that if I dont hear directly from Milehi. Thanks for seconding what I was thinking.

    Yes, Skybird, I am in Silt (yeah as in dirt, LOL). We ARE tiny, but they are currently building several subdivisions (including ours), so I expect our population to double in the next couple of years. Good for the property values, bad for those of us that like the small town feel.

    Skybird, I'm in Cedar Hills, which is northeastern Utah Valley. We're just east of American Fork and Highland, right at the foot of the beautiful Wasatch Mountains! It's 35 miles from here to downtown SLC (I commute there every day).

    Skybird, Put me down in case anyone happens to be in or out and about Larkspur.

    Ok, Highalt! Ill put you down in dirtI mean, Silt! Nothin wrong with dirt! But, hmmmm, I dont think growing things in silt would work too well! ;-) Too bad youre going to loose your "small town!" That seems to be happening everywhere these days. Denver itself hardly qualified as a "city" when I moved out here in 64, and now........ Well, I dont even have words! Or, at least you wouldnt want to hear the ones I do have! ;-)

    I put you down this way, Stevation:
    Cedar Hills - 35 miles south of SLC, just east of American Fork
    Does that work for you?

    Im having fun looking you all up on my maps! My Utah map is old, and it didnt have either Cedar Hills or Highland, but I found American Fork! Ive driven right by you four times since 2000! I had to drive out to SFO right after training in 2000 since I wound up based out there, and then a bunch of us got furloughed after 9-11 and I had to drive back home againthen when we got recalled six months later I drove back to SFO again, and when my transfer finally came through the end of 03 I had to get my car back to DEN againbut that time I broke my kneecap just before I had to drive back. I enjoy driving, but that time it was NOT fun! Too bad I didnt know you when I came back after 9-11. Since I was temporarily unemployed, I made a vacation out of it that time and spent a few days in Yosemite and a couple other Natl. Parks on the way back, and I could have stopped by for a tour of the Utah Valleyalthough I didnt know it was called that back then!

    Pacu, I checked and I do have you down on the list as Larkspur. I put you in the "south of Denver, Castle Rock area" group. Since youre right in the middle between DEN and COS, would you rather be listed with the COS group, or do you want to stay where I have you?

    skybird - put those old maps away and use Mapquest. It will be a lot quicker. Granted it does not find the really "new' areas, but it will help.

    hey guys,
    i made us a Frappr page, if you'd like to we can all join up so we can see where everyone is visually::

    You don't have to sign up for any b.s., you can just geo-tag yourself :) if you check it out, you can see that I've already added myself.

    I'm in Springville which is just south of Provo. My husband works in downtown SLC and its about an hour drive. We were thinking of moving closer, but the price of homes here (both Utah Valley and SLC area) have gone up like crazy this past year. I'm glad we already owned a home!

    Hi - I'm new here and already feel lonely since there's nobody here from Wyoming! Casper, that is.

  • 19 years ago
    last modified: 11 years ago

    Don't feel lonely Petuniamel! I am formerly from Wyoming (Cheyenne). I think you will find there are many commonalities between areas of Wyoming and areas of Colorado. Lots of people from Utah, etc., post here, too. Welcome!

  • 19 years ago
    last modified: 11 years ago

    Ok! Time to get up to date here again! I plan to repost the list sometime next week.

    Welcome, petuniamel! Youre not alone up there in Casper. As of right now Im showing 7 people in Wyoming, including 3 others in or near Casper, so you definitely have some RMG neighbors nearbynot to mention all the rest of us posting here on RMG.

    There are still several people I havent heard back from with more specific information about where you are. If you want your location narrowed down a little bit more, give me the information in the next few days or Ill just post what I have now.

    lilacs of may Aurora
    shadygarden co Aurora
    peace rose DEN
    rwaldheim Are you in Denver
    maece COS
    Nancy in co COS
    pookyspal COS

    Plantladyco, I have a dumb question! Is Patty Jewett a place? Obviously Im not very familiar with COS, and that sure sounds like somebodys name to me! Right now I have you listed: Downtown COS (Patty Jewett). Is that right?

    Thats all the questions I have. You all have about a week to make any corrections or add yourself to the list. So, as we always used to say at the end of a demonstration in 4-H, are there any questions or comments? Or, in this case, corrections or additions!

    I have 84 people on the list right now,

    Hello one more here.

    I don't post very often but you can add me in Salt Lake County. I don't post much because I'm a plantaholic without a lot of knowledge to back it up! I do enjoy reading here a few times a week.

    hi sky bird i'm a new post. i'm in rifle, CO (right next to "dirt"). it's another small town exploding with the gas industry. don't like it but what can you do?!! sandy

  • 19 years ago
    last modified: 11 years ago

    Hi, Sandy! I'm Bonnie, and I live in "dirt"... uh, I mean Silt. Spend a lot of time in Rifle, since we don't have a grocery store, or much else for that matter, but as you said we are growing fast due to the gas industry. I'm glad we bought a house on the north side of the river, as the wells seem to be mostly on the south side ... for now anyway. Welcome to the RMG forum! Have you been gardening here long?

  • 19 years ago
    last modified: 11 years ago

    Now theres two if you in/near dirt..... I mean Silt! Youve got an RMG neighbor, Highalt!

    Welcome, Sandy. Youre on the list!
