Howdy guys! Long time no see (my bad I know :( )...
Anyway, it looks like I'll FINALLY be done with school here at NC State University in Raleigh, NC in December 2010... I'm kicking around the idea of moving out of NC and infact, out of this side of the country... Everything I have ever seen about Colorado has just been so attractive to me! The weather, the terrain, the ski resorts, etc...
Here's a bit about me, if you have any advice for me (suggestions or whatever) please post up!

I am 27years old, ex-US Marine, current US Army National Guard, and graduating from NC State University with a BS in Environmental Technology (Science), Organic Chemistry & Toxicology. So I'll be looking for a job with either a government run environmental research facility, Environmental Health & Safety position, Water quality, Air quality, basically ANYTHING dealing with the environment. Any suggestions on where to look for jobs?? I figure now is a good time to start looking (can't hurt atleast)...
I LOVE my hobbies (Track Days, Autocrossing, Mountain Bike Racing, etc)... Is there anything particularly interesting about the Denver area which I might like?
Housing... I've heard that houses in the Denver / Boulder area are rather expensive. Can anyone confirm this? If so, where would you recommend looking for housing?
Are there regular Subaru meets up there? I imagine because of the location and weather that Subaru's are rather popular up there, but that isn't always a sure sign of what the local community is like...

Thanks very much for the info in advance guys!! Hopefully I'll get out there sometime in the Summer to visit!!
