About the host
Hosted by Bev Vidmar
We have lived most of our lives in Colorado with the exception of my husband Dave who was born here. We love this state because we are very active people and have found there is never a lack of things to do and the weather in Colorado is very desirable. Outdoorsy people, we love hiking, biking, hunting, horseback riding-you name it we love to do it!
