But first, let's talk about how Edge, aka Adam Copeland, one of the stars of the World Wrestling Entertainment, came to live in our lovely mountain oasis.
“The last show here, I was standing out on the (Civic Center) balcony, on the side, looking around at the mountains,” Edge told me in a recent phone interview. “I've always liked this town.

We liked the art, and it seemed like it was pretty cool culturally — and we love the mountains and the seasons.”
