Brian -

Yes to echo Cal's advice join the mailing list.

Thomas Rideout (@realrideout on twitter) is a co-host of mine on PHPUgly.
He lives in Colorado Springs and will be very excited to hear this and I am
sure would be more than willing to do a talk or to. Thomas helped me run
San Diego PHP and San Diego Laravel User Groups before moving. I won't over
commit him but he might be a great resource. I will ping him. Let me know
if you start up a Meetup Page or something we can start pointing people to.
