People in my country are very patient every day and here in US, people work like a machine in weekdays and on the weekend all they do is fun.

Brewery hopping, hiking, football, biking, camping… The list can go on and on.

My parents visiting me at Fort Collins. My parents liked Fort Collins and Denver very much. I do not know how many times they might have been to City Park. They loved the greenery and loved being in Fort Collins.
