The Best of Pueblo

I was recently strolling around downtown Pueblo and talking with Jason about what I love about our city. I'm sure you all have others--share them in comments section.

  • The Riverwalk: scenic, artsy, good music, free. Whenever I'm down there, I so want to buy a loft and stay forever.
  • The City Park rides (the very same rides of my childhood): My eldest is almost too old (except for one ride), so I know our days of enjoying this attraction are limited. But quarter rides? What's not to love?
  • The new YMCA: 'nuff said.
  • Jorge's: I still maintain this is the best Mexican food in town.
  • The Nature Center: I'd pretty much rather take my walks here than anywhere else.
  • The Size: big enough to have pretty much any amenity, but small enough to actually be able to access/afford it.
  • Colorado Fiber Arts: great little yarn shop.
  • Minnequa Splash Park: free outside of pool hours, but the pools are so darn cheap it's no biggie to pay.
  • Charter Schools: Colorado has a good Charter School system, and we can pick from several here in town (or online).
  • Diana: could any statue rock more?
  • Arts Center: we've seen shows, taken classes, played at the children's museum. It's just a cool place overall.
There are other things like the kayak course or B Street Bash that I haven't actually tried out, but am pretty sure I'd enjoy. What do you love about our big small town?
