Colorado is a unique and diverse state that is home to many different cultures, backgrounds and stories. The one thing that connects us all? The fact that we all have these 10 things in our homes!

1.) Four Wheel Drive

2.) Comfortable jacket

Flickr/CastawayVintage Desperate times (AKA anything below 20 degrees) call for desperate measures.

3.) Chapstick (and lots of it)

Flickr/girlwparasol Climates don’t get any drier than CO.. okay, that’s a lie. Regardless, Coloradoans know to invest in some high quality wax – your lips (and Burt’s Bees stockholders) will thank you!

4.) Lotion

5.) Broncos gear

Flickr/Jeffrey Beall Raiders fan? LEAVE. NOW.

6.) Snow shovel

Flickr/Gerald Davison ..because your HOA is going to be all up in your biz if your sidewalks aren’t cleared within 15 minutes of a blizzards end.

7.) Crocs

Flickr/ds4832 Don’t deny it.

8.) SPF 75 sunscreen

Flickr/Antoine Skipper 300 average days of sunshine = 300 average days of pinkish-red skin.

9.) Lead foot

Flickr/SuperCar-RoadTrip.fr An item we take out of our closets on a daily basis (because ain’t nobody got time to stop at a red light).

10.) A great pair of tennis shoes

Flickr/Christian Arballo Colorado is full of adventure and we like to tie up our laces and explore!
