Jack of All Trades, Master of Nothing |
My favorite Telluride story. The wife and I spent a long weekend in Durango several years ago on Labor Day weekend. We never thought about it being the Steel Horse 4 Corners Motorcycle Rally. So everywhere we went that weekend there were Harleys. We spent a day and went over to Telluride. Main Street was one long line of parked Harleys. It had been an exceptionally dry year and because of that the bears were coming into to town looking for food and water. Someone left a Snickers bar in the saddlebag of a Harley... Black bear comes wandering down main street, gets a whiff of the Snickers bar and started going to town ripping apart the saddlebag to get to it. Bear knocks over bike, domino effect down Main Street. Lots of pissed off bikers come running out of the many bars and saloons ready to kick someone's ass. Lots of bikers went running back into bars and saloons once they saw the bear. My daughter can deflate your daughter's soccer ball. | |||

I'd have been in Hog Heaven! (I love Harleys!) Some years ago I visited a cousin in Hot Springs, Arkansas and happened upon a big biker rally--Harleys all over. It was awesome. flashguy Texan by choice, not accident of birth | |||

my own Telluride story: summer of '76, 3 week running camp-out vacation, camp in city park & look for bath house in middle of town....no other facilities available. Went in front door, line at counter, M went one direction & F went the other around counter to rear. Only having 1 shampoo etc, our concern was who/how/etc. Clerk just kept saying "just go thru the doors"....so finally we proceeded with elaborate plans how to share....going in each door separate our surprise to find just one big shared common shower room regardless of which door.... Probably isn't as it was. Good luck with your showers anyway. **************~~~~~~~~~~ "I've been on this rock too long to bother with these liars any more." ~SIGforum advisor~ "When the pain of staying the same outweighs the pain of change, then change will come."~~sigmonkey | |||

That’s great Signewt. I did stay at the New Sheridan on one visit and they had a communal bathroom for each floor. I believe it was separate for M and W though. Come to think of it, that was in 1988. My first trip here. "Attack life, it's going to kill you anyway." Steve McQueen... | |||

Tie a string to your credit card. Everything there and near there is crazy expensive. But hey, it is tourist season! "Practice like you want to play in the game" | |||
