Description
The town in the near field (relatively speaking) is Buena Vista, Colorado.
Any bets on how they came up with that name? LOL! What a beautiful view they've got!
There's a relatively amazing (to me) phenomenon in this country concerning the pronunciation of town names. For example, Lima, Ohio is pronounced LI-ma, like the bean ... not LEE-ma, like the city in Peru. Cairo, Illinois is pronounced Kerr-O, like the syrup, not KAI-ro, like the city in Egypt.
Buena Vista, Colorado, is pronounced BEU-na Vista, like the "e" doesn't exist, not BWAY-na Vista, like you'd think.
Regardless of the eccentricities of American pronunciation of proper names, this place is just gorgeous.
Beautiful View, indeed!
