fun stuff

 started a biz making and selling awesome ski racks---why stick your skis on top of your car when you can use a hitch mount---if it is good enough for your bikes why not your skis?

Gravirax

That has me pretty busy ergo fewer posts.

But some other fun facts ---Pitkin has an unofficial policy for covid--we are aiming for herd immunity.  Pretty much everyone has it but life continues as normal except for the sick folks.  Wonder what the end of shoulder season and prime x-mas-new years will bring.

We got no snow---well you can top to bottom on Aspen but that is about it, which ain't too bad if you are a local and looking to get a couple of laps in on a sunny 50 degree day but kinda sucks if you travel here and are paying a bunch of money.  Silver lining is Ski Co doesn't need a lot of employees to manage a couple of 100 acres of skiable terrain so the employee shortage don't matter.

Daughter's hockey is in full swing--one of her teammates was ejected from a game and has to sit out an additional game because VAIL sucks :)  

Also they now have to wear masks all the time---last night post practice all I heard about was how doing suicides in a mask sucks.  I told her back in my day...........---ok it does suck.

And her team now has to change in the open because COVID is really bad in locker rooms I guess (has anyone from the  heath board looked at the high school lunchroom?).   Meanwhile SafeSport is having a fit.

We went under contract on a bit of land near Wilts and then in disclosure found that a soils report indicated a chance of a sink hole in our building envelope.  Called my insurance guy who said 'never heard of that in CO and after looking into it we can't insure against a sink hole'.  We are back to the drawing board and I guess the top in real estate isn't in yet cause that can only happen after we buy something.

Lastly and surely least our Congressional Rep Lauren Bobert continues to be ummmm special.  Kinda wish a special school bus could take her away to a special place for people who serve tainted meat at the state fair, endanger their kids in their car, ignore health regulations at their restaurant, and wear a gun everywhere cause they are a scared little bi@ch.  Good news is it seems with her GED level education she hasn't figured out what Congress does nor how to actually do anything (good or ill) for her community outside of saying nasty things.  Would someone from the real world in the GOP please primary her?

Anyone want a rack?
