The wife wanted to take a drive today up to the mountains. I reluctantly agreed since it is football Sunday.
We decided to drive 285 and cut across to Breck, so far a nice day. Get to Breck have a nice lunch and a beer at Octoberfest, again a good time. Took a little hike around Breck to help lunch digest.
The next decision brought down an other wise enjoyable Sunday. We drove from Breck over Loveland pass and onto the Highway to Hell. 2 fricking hours to get from Loveland ski area to C-470.
I might kill somebody if I have to deal with this all winter.
Thanks for listening to my little rant.

Yeah it sucks! I do however laugh every now and again as I flip through the channels and see the live I 70 cameras and the jam that starts around Georgetown as I sip a beer in front of the fireplace from the comfort of my Vail trophy home.
Skiing Sucks! What a stupid sport!

A 7 layer burrito at the Taco Bell in Georgetown(in the gas station) always seemed to help that drive go by a bit quicker.
I like living where the Ogdens are high enough so that I'm not everyone's worst problem.- YetiMan

Sorry Homer, I was just busting chops a bit. I do live in Vail. However, the accomodations are far from trophy. I ususlly have an extra couch or two if ever in need.

somebody should send this thread to pinner.
If a good I-70 rant can't get him back...."It is not the result that counts! It is not the result but the spirit! Not what - but how. Not what has been attained - but at what price.
