Yep, This Photo Pretty Much Sums Up Why Post-Flood Colorado Will Bounce Back
A knee-high morass of mud did not deter this Boulder man from enjoying his morning jog.
In the aftermath of the torrential storm-smacking Colorado endured last week, which killed at least six people, left 139 still unaccounted for, and caused probably more than $2 billion in damages, it's easy to focus on the negative.
But Colorado's full of tough people, and will no doubt eventually pull through. Nowhere is that resilience more on display than in the above photo of a Boulder man out jogging beneath a pedestrian underpass on Saturday, after the rain momentarily ceased. The reason you can't see his legs is because they're sunk in a knee-deep river of mud coughed up by Boulder Creek.
