You know you live in (Grand Junction) when...
15 years ago
I'm not gonna explain how I did this.
You know you're from Grand Junction when...
-You never use a compass. Mountain Ranges tell you which directions you’re headed.
-Although your city has an airport, you always drive to Salt Lake or Denver for flights.
-The Term “Devil’s Kitchen” doesn’t intimidate you.
-You’ve Ever Cruised North Avenue on a Friday Night.
-You know why Clifton Village South is not somewhere you want to live
-You actually know someone who “Lives in a Van Down By the River.”
-People riding horses around neighboring towns is perfectly normal.
-You miss the Cow on 12th street. This cow was awesome and it sucks that he is gone.
-Your favorite Sports team of all time is a Parks and Rec Softball team.
-You spend every summer evening at Canyon View.
-You’ve actually climbed the face of a mountain merely to touch a flag pole.
-Floating down the river is a favorite past time.
-There are more churches per capita than…anything else!
-You wonder what ever happened to Speedo Man. I heard he passed away, actually.
-The best day of your life was the day Krispy Kreme Opened.
-You know which Wal-Mart is the “good one” and which is the “bad one.”
-The name Gay Johnson doesn’t offend you or cause you to blush.
-No one knows what a yellow light means…much less a yellow arrow.
-You drive around all night looking for a corn maze that may or may not exist.
-You’ve actually cut down your own Christmas tree before…out of a real forest.
-You know the difference between Powderhorn and Olde Powderhorne.
-Color Sunday is something you look forward to every year.
-You ski at an area with three lifts, if you count the bunny hill.
-No U-turns allowed. Anywhere.
-You go to Village Inn late at night to watch the weirdos.
-You have ever worked at Star Tek. And quit when you found out it has nothing to do with astronomy technology.
-You’ve ever timed your trips around railroad crossings.
-Driving “all the way” across town only takes 15 minutes.
-You remember the house that fell into the river.
-There’s only one mall, and it’s only one story, and you can stand in the middle and see each end. At least I think so, I don't spend much time in there.
-You wonder where Jamba Juice went. And wonder what Jamba means
-All major roads have two names.
-Any restaurant you eat at has come to town within the last five years.
-Dos hombres is considered fine dining.
-You’re willing to drive all the way to Palisade for free wine.
-You were excited when "the new movie theatre" opened because we finally had a real theatre.
-You were even more excited when Chipotle came to town.
-You were excited when a Sonic and a Qdoba came to Clifton!! (Where were they when I went to Central gosh)
-You don't find it weird that your street names have letters and/or fractions in them. It just makes sense. I used to live on F 1/2 road
