My name is Joseph Jensen. I grew up in Denver, Colorado, where I watched the Rockies on television every day and went to games around ten times a year. I moved to Salt Lake City, Utah, where I continue to watch all the Colorado teams every time they play. I love writing and have been growing since my first blog about three years ago. Go Rockies!
