Looking for some Colorado advice

[David Lemley]

I have been a full time investor for 20 years and been listening to the pod-casts ever since I found the site a year ago.  Thanks for all the great info!!  Sitting in Chicago traffic has been way more interesting listening to fellow real estate nerds. 

I am looking for some advice.  I would like to rent a place in Colorado for the summer.  My wife is a teacher and kids are in college.  I want to plan a super fun summer before the kids graduate and get tied down with life.  I would also like to piggy back some work in as well.  Eventually, I would like to purchase a property that would be in demand (as a rental) for the ski season, and be available to me in the summers.  We hike and white water kayak.  I am hoping this trip would help me locate a property that would meet my needs.

I would appreciate a point in the right direction.  I am excited to hear any advice you may have.
