I booked the Silver Inn in Silverton for $85 per night. That was the online rate so I ended up just booking direct so the hotel doesn't have to pay out any commish to third party site. I stayed there two years ago and it's pretty nice and right next door to Target and a five minute walk from an Irish Pub that has corned beef nachos. Time to start packing.

Safe travels, WTGAI!!!!

Have fun man.

[momskeeztoo]

Have fun and post some entertaining trip reports, please. And thank you.

At the gate. Wheels up in an hour and 18 minutes. Supposed to snow 2-4" at Abasin today and maybe a little more tonight. Hopefully the snow shower activity doesn't mess stuff up on 70 like last years trip.

A few tips when going through security

On the plane second row window with a 4 year old in middle seat. Looks like plane is gonna takeoff 15-20 minutes late. I always notice the large amount of religious Jews on this southwest flight to Denver almost all families.

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

In Denver. Kid on plane instead of saying we're landing said we're dropping lol.

[Shadows]

Just good etiquette.

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

Exactly that's what's known as Smartstyle.

Thanks toast on bus to rental car facility. Was cool sitting next to a five year old on the plane. Kept things spicy and I talked to the mom a little bit. This kid had so many treats. Two lollipops, a fruit roll up, two bags of chips, two Apple juices...I was shaking my harmonica and sort of wanted a fruit roll up. Got baggage super quick.

At Carl's Jr. in Idaho Springs having a late lunch. Went to the dispensary here got a pipe and some sour diesel and some sort of indica/Sativa hybrid...next stop after this is the Silver Inn then the Target next door to buy some toiletries as I didn't feel like picking up travel sized jawns yesterday.

The temperature fluctuated from 63 degrees to 28 degrees on the 85 mile drive from the Denver airport to Silverthorne. Some snow showers and high winds the last 15 miles or so.

Where are you skiing tomorrow?

I think Abasin unless somewhere else gets significantly more snow.

Well I had Carl's Jr. had the fiesta burger minus the spicy ranch sauce and it was a beef patty, bacon, pepperjack, guac and half a salad on it with criss cross fries(waffle) and diet stoke. Noticed they had diet dr. Pepper after I got the diet stoke which was a minor Herman shaker. Went into the Cum and Go with a bag of weed on my passenger seat parked next to a cop car.

 

Anyway after Carl's Junior after just having a bag of corn chips on the plane and a soft pretzel in Newark airport I had to poop but still had like 30 miles to go. There was even a rest stop two miles along on the highway but I usually only frequent rest stop bathrooms to exchange coupons with fellow skiing and riding enthusiasts.

 

 

I'm in the same room at the Silver Inn that I had two years ago. It's adequate has a couch, one bed, small table, no desk, flat screen, mini fridge, microwave, sink outside bathroom and next door to Target.
