I would use that tub!

I like to take baths with Epsom salts and bubbles (would not do it after midnight, however).

I would like to remind anyone in or near the Boulder area that Scott's hotel has an available room with two beds tonight and tomorrow. According to the website, the hotel has a jacuzzi! My car won't be fixed till late afternoon so have fun for me guys!

I guess I should splurge and buy one, even if I cannot be there in person... (Oh wait - there was a shipping issue or something...) I am Canadian

Debbie913 was going to let me use her address if I recall.

I hope the next one (King Kon) is in Maine - I would love to see the East Coast again - have not been there since I went to Cornwallis Nova Scotia for basic training in 1980!

Altitude sickness is no joke, it happens because of our bodies have difficulty adjusting to the lower oxygen level. If you feel nauseated or if you've noticed that you aren't making sense, it's either that or a hangover. Drink fluids and descend.

I had this happen the first time I visited Pike's Peak. I was in line buying refreshments for all four of us. I didn't realize how zonked I was until the cashier told me the the total and I just kept staring at him like he had never spoken to me. After about 10 seconds of awkwardness, he told me the total again. I then looked at him and asked him for the total. He just started chuckling saying he thought the altitude might be getting to me. I started laughing like an idiot then dropped my wallet while trying to get money out of it....

Me too. While driving from Boulder to Estes Park I started seeing black splotches and feeling short of breath. Had to pull over on side of cliff. Almost passed out.

I've driven through The Rockies many times. The scariest was going from Durango to Manitou Springs, on what I thought was a short cut. Not so much: five hours of falling boulders and switchback turns in the pouring sleet later, I thought I was going to die.
