    Please do!! I pm'd you my cell. (No rentals allowed haha)

    Yes, some pics up on our website, but adding more all the time. Not a ton of time for picture taking just yet

    So much has changed since 2010... When you guys come back out, please look us up!

    Thanks - that's how I knew your plumbing issue was a regulator, I've been in and out of all sorts of things since I got here - plumbing, construction, electrical, video, etc. A real education!!!

    I know how you can fix that!

    I think the only comment I would have, if I may, is on the website: you need some sample pics of the rooms!
    Thanks a whole lot. Yes, we do! As soon as we're completing rooms we're posting pics. There are just two room pics, under the blog section. We're hurrying to get them all done!!!

    Something I've always wanted to do is road trip across the country. I guess I know where I'll be staying in Colorado if I ever end up doing it.

    Will do. I wish this wasn't as time consuming as it is... would've wanted to check out your manual swap... maybe sometime!

    Congratulations! Sweet new adventure, wishing you all the luck in the world, sounds like you are making all the right changes, take it from someone who stays in hotels about 150 days a year! What a beautiful area, you're not far from our place in Fraser, CO (by Winter Park). Going to be out there this August, keep your name out there and get involved with as many local events as possible.

    Congrats! I love Colorado and the wife and I plan on moving out to the Parker/Castle Rock area later this year. We were out there during the summer of 2011 and rented a new Charger (V6) and took it all the way up Mt Evans, that was fun, even more fun with a V8 G8. We plan on coming back this summer again before the move and will keep the Inn in mind for a stay.
