I too went to the Rockies in MY 27th year. Didn't say very long any where, unfortunately, but I can see the attraction. I have seen fire in the sky, a bright meteor shower with several meteors per minute out on a dark township road, sitting on the hood of the 1950's Buick. And I understand 'talking to God'.
One year, my parents and I went toward north Wisconsin and stopped at a sandstone outcrop in the middle of a huge pine forest. It was cloudy, with a thin strip of blue in the west. I went up a bit more than my parents did. I felt so large yet so small. I did meet God that. He was born in the summer of his twenty-seventh year Coming home to a place he'd never been before He left yesterday behind him You might say he was born again You might say he found a key to ev'ry door.

When he first came to the mountains his life was far away On the road and hangin' by a song But the string's already broken, and he doesn't really care It keeps changin' fast, and it don't last for long But the Colorado Rocky Mountain high I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky The shadow from the starlight Is softer than a lullaby Rocky mountain high (Colorado) Rocky mountain high (Colorado). He climbed cathedral mountains He saw silver clouds below He saw everything as far as you can see And they say that he got crazy once And he tried to touch the sun And he lost a friend but kept his memory Now he walks in quiet solitude The forests and the streams Seeking grace in every step he takes His sight has turned inside Himself to try and understand The serenity of a clear blue mountain lake And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky Talk to God and listen to the casual reply Rocky mountain high (Colorado) Rocky mountain high (Colorado).
