Colette-- this reply may be coming too late to help you, but if you ask in Boulder for the "Boulder teahouse" most people will know what you mean. I think an earlier post here called it the Boulder Dashnube Teahouse.

My short thought:

Less time in denver. Its a nice big city with the same things you will find in Atlanta in some fashion or another.

You don't have mountains in Atlanta.

I can guarantee you will have wished you spent more time in RMNP. I would highly recommend more time there hiking. Get into the park and you will be avoiding crowds, especially if you pick the right hikes on more secluded trails.

Good luck. Chris
