It's a big up & down drop for sure. No doubt you've got nerves of steel hauling a rig like that over the pass.
About 7-8 years ago now my daughter was in the girl scouts and I met a father of one of the other GS at their house. He was a interesting fella who collected old arcade games and and other cool old things, so he and I had some things in common. He was a driver and one night he was teeming with a fella heading over Monarch pass and his pard fell asleep as he was in the back sleeping and that was the end of both of em. Bad deal for a young dad and a darn good father to lose his life like that. I'm coming to tears as I'm writing this and I recall the pain and hurt I saw in that young daughters eyes back then.
I know. Ouray lodging was full up last week and they told me the rates were to drop after August. When I asked why they didn't do as they said, they just said things ain't slowing down. I guess it's "see the aspens change season now" Now that's become a full time Rocky Mountain event that the tourist from afar put on their calendars. I think it's time for me to change careers and get in on this ever increasing business of the tourist industry. I'll get me a bus and on the side it'll say "Tamrock Tours"
Indeed! Sit back and relax as you puff away and Tamrock will do the driving and I'll play some John Denver Rocky Mountain High for for the passengers in the back as they. I stopped to get something at the BV City Market a last weeks. Can't remember what it was, but sure thing what you said the parking lot was a mess. I parked out by the road. I can never figure out why some folks will cruse around looking for a closer parking spot. I was in and out on my two feet before they finally found that perfect parking spot close to the door. No wonder there's a problem of poor health in this country.
