We are taking a week semi-off (we have our computers and cell phones with us) and going to visit family in Colorado. We drove out with a friend who was dead-heading a car to Aspen. We just spent two days in Aspen (awesome! who needs winter in Aspen when there’s summer in Aspen?) running and biking and staying at a wonderful B&B (they were great – we had new cameras shipped there and they had no problem signing for them & holding them for us) then took a bus to Glenwood Springs today where we have already had massages and a lovely dinner at the Hotel Colorado, which I have decided (this being my third trip) is one of my favorite places on Earth.
Yesterday quite by accident we had the chance to go on a walk-through of a brand new 10 million dollar house in the foothills above downtown Aspen. Wow! I’ve never been inside a 10 million dollar house, but if this place was any example – whoa! Six bedrooms, seven and a half baths, two media rooms, three fireplaces, two master bedrooms (one was a guest master bedroom); the list of amazing stuff went on and on. We spent some time contemplating who among the people we know who we might coerce into joining us in investing in the ten million dollar house. In the end we decided to look for something in the under ten million dollar range. So it goes.
