Hi Bill,
Sorry for the delay. Have been traveling on business last couple of days.
As to your comment about getting out to CO, there are numerous places both State Parks and just plain old recreational areas. In our experience, we love visiting repeatedly the following:
Turquoise Lake Recreational Area - outside Leadville, CO - side note: Leadville is the highest (elevation) incorporated city in the US
Steamboat Lake State Park - scenery awesome!
Lottis campground on the famous Taylor River or any other campgrounds at Taylor
Campgrounds near Crested Butte - scenery will blow you away
Carter Lake
I could go on. If you want RV parks near towns i.e. gambling meccas, great KOA in Central City. Now, gambling here is not like a big city. Talking about a small mountain town with great mountain views at the KOA because of elevation.
Hope this helps you and if you plan a trip out this way, lets talk and maybe meet up. I'm retiring in March 31st. and go the Hohenwald to get our Ollie on April 17th. The anticipation is overwhelming sometimes.
