# 1 The Weather

Yes, the weather. You may joke about it at parties, get updates on your smart phone or read about it in the paper. Or just wake up and go with it.  Regardless, a one of the top 5 reasons to relocate to Boulder is sunshine and blue skies.  This week is a great example. We were able to hike on the Mount Sanitas Trail in shorts and t-shirts at the tail end of December. Now that’s cool. Well, not cool, whatever you know what I mean.
