Ouch. Apparently my blog is worth $0.00.Reply
Hey Pinkadillies – I got this from the oranginadreams blog (in my blog roll). A lot of comments were saying the same thing :( I wonder how they even calculate it?Reply
Well I think it's stinky ;)Reply
Well I got a pleasant result for mine but I would be interested to know how they calculate it. Anyway the result of their calculator isn't what really counts. The real bottom line is what someone would actually pay for it.Reply
woohoo! nine thousand. it's really funny isn't it? and like Karen said, the bottom line is what people would actually pay. Would someone pay me 11k for my blog? I don't think so….Reply

On Saturday evening, a night that saw former Kansas guard Mario Chalmers get his jersey retired, the Jayhawks put on a show.
Kansas used a balanced effort to win, 73-47 in Lawrence. With the win, Kansas kept pace with Kansas State who defeated Baylor on Saturday in the Big 12 standings. Both teams hold a 9-3 record in conference. Overall, the Jayhawks now have a 21-4 record. Texas fell to 11-14 overall, and 3-9 in conference.
Jeff Withey, and Travis Releford led the balanced scoring with 15 points apiece for Kansas. Withey added 11 rebounds, four steals and two blocked shots. Ben McLemore added 13 points, six rebounds and three assists, while point guard Elijah Johnson scored 12 points. Texas was keyed by Myck Kabongo who scored 13 points, nine of which came from the free-throw line. For the game, Texas connected only shot 22% from the field, and 10% from behind the three-point line. In comparison, Kansas hit 46% of their field goals.
Kansas broke open an 15-9 game early on with nine straight points, pushing the lead to 15. Kansas went into the locker-room with a 28-15 lead on the Longhorns. The second half was more of the same as Kansas instantly jumped ahead by 22 with a 14-4 run. The score only continued to get worse for Texas, as Kansas built a 30-point lead at 60-30. Freshman Perry Ellis made the score 70-35 after two free throws with 3:42 remaining. Texas did manage to make the final score a little more respectable in the end.
Next up for Kansas is a rematch with 17th-ranked Oklahoma State on Wednesday in Stillwater. The Cowboys defeated Kansas 85-80 on Feb. 2nd, ending the Jayhawks 18-game winning streak. Oklahoma State pulled out a tough win over Oklahoma on Saturday in overtime, 84-79.

Vacuum Filters
Who does not love a clean house free from grime and dust? Vacuum cleaner filters are the essential parts of the vacuum cleaner that keep the dirt sucked up by the cleaner in the machine. It helps kill the germs and contaminants that are trapped within. They are positioned such that they can trap the dust mites and pollutants before it reaches the motor and the exhaust. There are various kinds of filters available including the ultra fine air filter and some vacuum cleaning systems even use water as a filter. Water filtration helps trap wet dust that is not airborne. Having a fully functional vacuum filter is critical to maintain the suction and dirt handling ability of the vacuum cleaner. You are not just saving yourself from the harmful effects of these dust particles but also saving the critical parts of the vacuum cleaning system from failure. We recommend you change vacuum filters regularly, once in six months atleast.

Wedding: 6/1/2013
First of all, the castle is absolutely spectacular! The whole ambiance that surrounds the castle is simply out of a fairytale. Decorating is certainly not necessary. The castle itself is the decoration. I think we spent less than 5% of our budget on flowers and décor.
Also, the castle staff are amazing. I must admit that I did not see much of the inner workings of what was going on, but isn't that the point? I spent time with my bridesmaids in the fabulous bridal suite and my every whim was catered to. When I emerged and saw the castle ready for our wedding I was speechless! It was everything (and more) that I had been dreaming about!
Brides - if you want that fairytale wedding that you have been dreaming about, then the only place to do it is Castle Ladyhawke! :)
Wedding: 7/28/2012
This venue is beautiful, and the staff is very helpful. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the place, and all hated to go home!
Wedding: 4/28/2012
Castle Ladyhawke is an amazing place to get married. The owner was there for me EVER time I called. She was never in a hurry to get me off the phone, no matter how long we talked. We were able to visit the castle many, many times before the wedding. The staff went above and beyond to make our day the best day ever. The castle is magnificent. The pictures do not give the true view of this place. Every room is huge, the view is breath taking (and I live in the mountains). We had 75 guest and everyone was amazed and overwhelmed by the castle and the staff. The guest were so scattered, it looked like only a few people were there - until the ceremony. Ever guest had full range to roam the castle WITHOUT an attendent following them around. The only decorations that we put out was the centerpieces for the tables during the reception. Everything else was already there and looked very "rich". Everyone should see the Dragon Room. The spiral staircase is the most beautiful thing that I have ever seen.
The staff worked hard to keep us calm. All we had to do was LOOK like we needed something, and someone was there wanting to know what we needed and they did this for every guest. They have valet parking, so when the guest pulled up, there was not the clutter of cars everywhere, just the castle. We stayed the night in the castle with several of our guest, and it was best night of our lives. We felt very secure there even thou it was "just us" that night. It was like it was us and the stars and that nothing else in the world existed. We are already planning our 10 year anniversay back there.
We looked at several other places to have our wedding. Several were less expensive, but not one of the others gave us the attention that Castle Ladyhawke gave us. When you rent the castle, YOU ARE THE ONLY EVENT GOING ON THAT DAY. You have their full attention all day and all evening. Our guest left when they were ready to leave. No one was packing up chairs and making them feel like it was "time to leave".
They are well worth the price. I would HIGHLY recommend Castle Ladyhawke and we will use them again for other gatherings.
Wedding: 10/3/2014
Castle Ladyhawke was the perfect venue for my fairy tale wedding! The view of the WNC mountains from the Castle is breath-taking and makes an amazing backdrop for any wedding (especially Fall!). From the first visit to tour the venue-until our wedding day, everything flowed wonderfully with the staff at Castle Ladyhawke. They are very accommodating and work very hard to make your wedding day feel special. They are always busy with multiple weddings weekly, and still somehow give you 100% to make it seem like you are the most important person to them! They are extremely helpful with any questions or concerns you may have. The staff goes above and beyond in every thing they do. I honestly could not imagine having my wedding anywhere else. The day was absolutely perfect and would't have been that way without the time and effort that the staff at the venue put in! I would highly recommend this venue to anyone wanting to have their wedding in the beautiful North Carolina mountains! Between the venue staff, and the beautiful place, our wedding could have never been as perfect as it was at Castle Ladyhawke!
Wedding: 10/25/2008
Castle Ladyhawke was the perfect venue for my Fairytale wedding. Kim, Joy and all the staff were awesome!! They were courteous, patient, efficient, kind, respectful and accommodating for all our needs. When there was a sudden change in the weather, the castle staff was extremely prompt and efficient in changing the seating from outdoors to indoors in a matter of minutes. They are the BEST!! Everything you need for your dream wedding is at the Castle. They can assist you with ALL your wedding needs. Very little decorating is needed, due to the natural beauty of the Castle and the immaculate grounds. There are endless photo and video opportunities available that will make your day memorable. They made us feel extra special and our day was magical!! A fairytale come true!! We would highly recommend Castle Ladyhawke for any wedding. Sincere appreciation to Kim, Joy and AlL the wonderful staff. Our day was perfect!!
Wedding: 5/12/2014
We had an amazing wedding at Castle Ladyhawke. From the beginning we were taken care of and given so much great advice. If I ever had any question no matter how small, I would receive a reply quickly.
The friendly staff make it very easy to enjoy your wedding day and they help you focus on what is important. The location is gorgeous and the ammenities were perfect for a wedding. We loved every moment.
Wedding: 11/16/2013
I would recommend Castle Ladyhawke for your intimate marriage ceremony and reception!
Wedding: 11/26/2013
The castle is absolutely beautiful! They employees are very helpful. You are allowed to bring in your own venders, which is nice. I would absolutely recommend this venue to anyone interested in it. It makes for a wonderful backdrop for photos.
Wedding: 10/18/2013
All of my guests thought the venue was absolutely beautiful, and so did we. I had some trouble during the planning stages when the staff was telling me a lot of the things I wanted wouldn't work. However, in the end, there were no major glitches and the venue was breathtaking.
Wedding: 9/13/2013
It really was absolutely perfect. It kept getting more and mor expensive as the wedding kept getting nearer. There is really nothing included in any package for this place but the grounds is really what you want for it. Aside from having to try to coordinate the whole thing myself the spot is the best place to go for. Just for the prices and the fact that its so secluded would have made it better if it came with packages like other venues had to offer. That way it wouldn't have felt like I was in it by myself.
Wedding: 9/27/2013
Castle Ladyhawke is truly a magical wedding venue! The staff is great and Kim, the owner, is wonderful! She helped every step of the way! The recommended vendor list was a huge help with planning our wedding and helped us find some of the best vendors in NC! I highly recommend!!
Castle Ladyhawke made our dream of a fairy tale wedding for our daughter come true. What a beautiful place. The setting is just incomparable and is not duplicated in our area. The staff has weddings down to a fine art. Our guests cannot say enough about their experience.
Wedding: 7/13/2013
The location and venue is absolutely beautiful, especially for a smaller ceremony. Up until the day of the wedding, the staff were very friendly and helpful. However, on the day of the wedding, everything kind of fell apart. We were going to have an outdoor wedding on the porch and the forecast was up in the air as to if it would rain or not. We had arrived in the morning and they had set everything up for an indoor wedding. We were told that if the chances were 50 percent and higher then we had to have it indoors. We begged to wait to see what would happen later in the day, as our wedding was not until 7 pm. They agreed to wait until 3 pm. 3 pm came and no rain. We asked if they could set things up outside and they would wait until 5 pm. We waited and there was still no rain at 5 pm. So we made the decision to have it outside as the percentage chance of rain was only 10 percent at that time. The staff then informed us that if the chances were 10 percent or more they would not have the wedding outdoors. Fifteen minutes before the wedding, all of my guests had arrived with no where to sit because nothing was set up, my family took action and set everything up themselves. What is worse, I had planned everything with the staff beforehand as far as where the DJ would be and the bar etc. and they did not set anything up. Needless to say, if it had not been for our DJ and my family no one would have known what to do or where to go. My family saved the day in trying to direct people where now the castle said
"we could go" even though it had nothing to do with what was agreed to happen. Unfortunately, there was so much added stress for everyone that day that was not needed and therefore, kind of put a damper on the day.
We try so hard to make everything perfect for our brides; but we can't control the weather! All of our documents clearly state that if the forecast is for 20% or more chance of rain, we reserve the right to relocate the ceremony indoors. This is only...
Wedding: 7/12/2013
I was married at Castle Ladyhawke July 12, 2013. I could not have asked for a more beautiful location, even in the rain it is gorgeous! After a 30 min summer rain storm we were still able to have our ceremony outdoors, approx 85 guests. The grounds are so green, lush, and the butterfly bushes on the back deck made a stunning backdrop to our ceremony! The staff is great and accommodating. The venue did put a big dent in my wallet, but it was a once in a lifetime day and I do not regret it! I have gotten tons of compliments and I know I could not have selected a better location!
Wedding: 5/19/2013
We had our spring wedding at Castle Ladyhawke, and we are so happy that we selected this venue. The staff was very helpful in answering our questions and helping us select the caterer, florist, and DJ from their list of recommended vendors. The location is just breathtaking. My mom said that it was the most photographed wedding she had ever attended. Our friends and family enjoyed the views from every patio, deck, and window!
Wedding: 10/13/2012
From the first point of contact untill the last guest left, Kim and the rest of the Castle Ladyhawke crew helped make our wedding day a success. They provided advice on timelines, layout, vendors, and did everything possible to make sure each and every detail was how I imagined.
We also found the castle to be an amazing value. It cost us less to have a CASTLE WEDDING IN THE MOUNTAINS for an entire day, than it would have cost us to rent a space locally for 4 hours. I also appreciated that they let you pick your own vendors so you have the freedom to find the vendors who meet your vision AND budget.
Most of all ... the location and castle are stunning. The wedding day was the first time my older sister got to see the castle in person. The whole way there she kept saying that it cant be as amazing as we made it out to be. But when the car crested the drive and the castle came into view ... she had the same reaction the rest of us did the first time we saw it: DAMN. If you want a fairy tale wedding, this is the place to go!
Wedding: 10/1/2012
My daughter was married at Castle Ladyhawke on Oct. 1, 2012. She was looking forward to an outside wedding with the mountains in the background and pictures on the grounds of the castle but it poured rain. The castle is so beautiful inside and outside though, that the wedding was perfect anyways. Joy, the castle attendant was so kind and helpful. She even walked my 75yr old mother to her car with an umbrella and made sure she didn't fall. I would highly recommend this place for anyone's wedding.
Wedding: 6/18/2012
Castle Ladyhawke is a beautiful venue and the owner and staff work very hard to make your day perfect. Any time I ever had a question or needed advice the owner would return my emails immediately and she always answered my phone calls. We were allowed to bring our dogs there for the big day, which was really nice :) Her staff was very friendly, our castle coordinator even came in early that morning so we could get an early start decorating. I cannot say enough good things about the location, the staff, and the support provided by the owner.
My only complaint about the Castle is the way she prices out her rentals. There were so many extra fees that the cost of the castle rental were almost doubled. When renting a venue for the day you expect to pay things like cleaning fees and deposits, but her bill detailed a fee for every chair, table and tablecloth that was used. We used a small table to put some water bottles on at the front entrance for about an hour and she charged a rental fee for using the table. Even her chair rental fee is a bit ridiculous. She charges $2.50 for each chair rental plus $1 to set them up, $1 to move them for dinner, and $1 to put them away. That means that for each chair you are actually paying $5.50. I realize that she's running a business but by the end of it all I did feel a little 'nickle and dimed to death'. Please don't let this discourage you from booking Castle Ladyhawke, just know up front that the cost of renting the Castle for the day is not the total cost of your day. You should keep plenty of room in your budget for all the extras.
Dusty is right; whatever venue you select, make sure you are aware of all the applicable fees and service charges required for your event, including any taxes or gratuities. At Castle Ladyhawke we provide you with a "Budget Quote" which not only full...
Wedding: 5/25/2012
Castle Ladyhawke is a beautiful venue for a wedding. We used it for our Spring desitination wedding in May 2012. Kim was so helpful & was wonderful at communicating. I dont think I could have done any of it without her. She also gave fantastic advice regarding other vendors & they were also amazing. Originally we wanted to have the reception indoors, but they recently built an outdoor deck that was perfect for our reception. The castle attendant, Joy, on the day of was great also. She was very accomodating & was a helpful hand the entire day. I would choose this venue over & over again.
Wedding: 5/12/2012
Went with a friend who bridal pictures. It was BEAUTIFUL!

How long have these been around? Since the 70′s or before, I think. Still as good today for Super Bowl or any gathering as they were when some of us were just hanky pankin' around….

My goal is to help you understand the important role your fashion accessories play in creating your "look" and how you can easily set yourself apart to emphasize your uniqueness. Yes, you heard me right – accessories are meant to play up on your individuality and uniqueness, which is, if we admit it or not, our true yearning as a woman. We want to be different and unique. Accessories can help you achieve this by bringing attention to your face, hiding those flaws you want to hide, or just making a statement about your individuality without your having to say a word.

A Swingman is a player who can play multiple positions in a sport.
In basketball, a swingman (or "wing") is a basketball term denoting a player who can play both the small forward (the "3") and shooting guard (the "2") positions, and, in essence swing between the positions.[1] Swingmen are often between 6'4" (1.93 m) and 6'9" (2.06 m). Examples of NBA swingmen include: Gerald Green, Nick Young, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Xavier Henry, C.J. Miles, Terrence Ross, Jeremy Lamb, Evan Turner, Danny Green, Kawhi Leonard, Zach LaVine, Vince Carter, Jimmy Butler, Joe Johnson, Andrew Wiggins, Kevin Durant, Arron Afflalo, and Jabari Parker.
Ice hockey[edit]
In ice hockey, a swingman is a player that can play both as a defenseman and as a forward.
In baseball, a pitcher who can work either as a reliever or starter is sometimes referred to as a swingman;[2] sometimes, if the pitcher is usually a long reliever, he is called a "spot starter".

Not to be a killjoy, but carrying an open container of alcohol on a bike violates the open container laws in most states.
So don't open til you arrive as your destination....then be sure the drink it all!

A caned faux bamboo chair confirms the apartment's lighthearted disposition. With its gilding and sumptuous cushions in aubergine velvet, the chair from Dessin Fournir commands attention but doesn't seem out of place among comfy upholstered pieces. The sofa is from Rose Tarlow-Melrose House.
Mementos from the past guide the style of the living room. One-of-a-kind pieces can be found on virtually every surface, mixing East and West with ancient and contemporary.
Organic shapes and patterns throughout Lynn's home bring the calmness of the beach to soothe the calamity of the city. Here, exotic ornaments play on the smooth surface of a leather bench in the living room.
In the foyer, a pair of chinoiserie chairs flank a Chinese cabinet topped with matching Asian lamps and a mirror stretching to the ceiling.
The design team gave the dining room exotic flair with an Indian-style wall covering from Jasper by Michael S Smith. At the windows, panels in sheer linen from Rose Tarlow-Melrose House hang over matchstick shades and whisper privacy. The oval-backed dining chairs are by Artistic Frame. Lynn's existing collection of contemporary artwork and Asian pieces smoothed her shift to new digs. Details on the following slide.
A wooden Asian-inspired chair lends its sensual pattern to the harmonious mood of the rest of Patchett's home. When its gilded finish catches glints of sunlight, the ornate motif of the chair comes to life.
There is a seamless transition between the living and dining rooms, with patterns and colors complemented by natural light. Note Lynn's original Asian rug accompanied by the sea-grass floor covering to enlarge the space of the sitting area.
In the kitchen, a sepia-toned wall covering with a faded batik motif by Rose Tarlow and rubber flooring that alleviates fatigue from standing on a hard surface help temper the sheen of stainless steel appliances. Calcutta Gold marble is used as a backsplash for the Viking range. Artwork adds an intimate, personal touch to the small work space.
A pass-through connects the kitchen's separate prep and eating areas. Calcutta Gold marble countertops in gray and white matching the backsplash sit on SieMatic contemporary cabinetry with a honey-tone finish.
Designers Benjamin Bradley and David Thiergartner created architecture in a corner by building shelves for book storage over Sheetrock walls. This is where homeowner Lynn Patchett spends a lot of time.
A shallow console in the hallway displays Chinese paintbrushes and a statue of Buddha. An antique Kilim rug was used to upholster the bench underneath.
Sunlight streaming through windows and French doors highlights an Asian desk and chair. A bed with a painted finish is dressed in linens by Eileen Fisher for Garnet Hill. Draperies are by Clarence House. Details on the following slide.
On the nightstand to the left of the bed, another small Buddha rests his feet atop a stack of books.
Tucked in a corner in front of mirrored closet doors is a chaise longue, perfectly cozy for reading or writing thank-you notes.
Shell-topped bottles are displayed on the chest of drawers. A unique iridescent lamp mirrors the sheen of the seashells as well as the framework above. Details on the following slide.
"I definitely think my new apartment reflects who I am better than any other place I've lived," says homeowner Lynn Patchett.
A bronze basin by Ann Sacks on an old desk transforms a windowless bath.
From her terrace, Lynn has a captivating view of the Central Park Reservoir.

At age 36, I found myself in a medium security prison serving 3-5 years for destruction of government property and public intoxication. This was stiff punishment for drunkenly defecating in a mailbox but as the judge pointed out, this was my third conviction for the exact same crime. I obviously had an alcohol problem and a deep and intense disrespect for the postal system, but even more importantly I was ignoring the very fabric of our metaphysical reality and inviting destructive influences into my life.

The connection comes as a new University of Washington poll found that of those Americans who supported the Tea Party movement, "only 35% believe Blacks to be hardworking, only 45 percent believe Blacks are intelligent, and only 41% think that Blacks are trustworthy. Perceptions of Latinos aren't much different. While 54 percent of White Tea Party supporters believe Latinos to be hardworking, only 44% think them intelligent, and even fewer, 42 percent of Tea Party supporters believe Latinos to be trustworthy. When it comes to gays and lesbians, White Tea Party supporters also hold negative attitudes. Only 36 percent think gay and lesbian couples should be allowed to adopt children, and just 17 percent are in favor of same-sex marriage.

This is too good. From TPM: An online news outlet in New York state has obtained dozens of emails, many of them racist and sexually graphic, which it reports were sent by Carl Paladino, the Tea-Party-backed Republican candidate for governor of New York, to a long list of political and business associates. One email shows a video of an African tribal dance, entitled "Obama Inauguration Rehearsal," while another depicts hardcore bestiality.

The thing about open, in-your-face White Pride racialists like Jesse James and Bombshell McGee is that they are a useful cover for the far more dangerous – and respectable – institutional racism.
Basically, the rest of the White community can point to them – with a healthy dose of classism and snobbishness – and say "those are the racists, right over there – look!"
And while we're looking at McGee's "W P" White Pride tattoo (and that's exactly what it is BTW – I asked a White friend of mine who did prison time with Aryan Brotherhood dudes and he confirmed it for me), we totally forget to talk about the far more powerful and dangerous racist forces at work in our society.
For instance, let's look at the film that Sandra Bullock won an Oscar for – "the Blind Side" – a movie that was very racist, but in a liberal, paternalistic way (precisely the kind of racism that in the dominant White American narrative of racism is very much DO NOT consider racist).
Beyond that, to speak of a racism that's even further removed from the dominant narrative of what "racism" is – I wonder how many Blacks or other People of Color work for Ms Bullock's production company?
And of those PoC's (if there are any – I genuinely do not know) how many of them are in management positions?
But you see, that's not "racism" – only a poor White person with Aryan Brotherhood tattoos is a 'racist" – movies that denigrate Black communities and employers who don't hire Blacks aren't "racist" at all in that narrative (even though they do far more damage to African Americans as a community than some random Nazi in a trailer park).
I also read that Jezebel discussion of what did Sandra Bullock know about Jesse James' White Pride racialism – and I was struck by the attitude of rage and anger among many of the commenters in the thread about anybody even hinting that "America's Sweetheart" could be a "racist"!
I believe that somebody even cited the fact that Bullock gave money to Haiti earthquake relief as "proof" that she's "not racist"!
Of course, considering the fact that Bullock was – between dating and the marriage – closely involved with James for the better part of two years, spent lots of time around him, his family and friends and got to see his tattoos up close and personal on a regular basis.
Now, unlike McGee, nobody to my knowledge has inventoried James body art (which in and of itself is mute testimony of the matter-of-fact sexism of media coverage) but I wonder if HE has "W P" or similar White Pride racialist tattoos – "RaHoWa" [Racial Holy War] perhaps, or maybe "88″ [which stands for "Hail Hitler"] maybe?
I do recall one tabloid account about how she is only now complaining about his regular use of slurs about Blacks, Latinos, Asians, Jews and gays, so it's pretty damned certain she knew who and what he was about from jump (and the fact that she's only mentioning it now speaks VOLUMES).
This very intimate linking of respectable racism and stereotypical trailer park "racism" perhaps hits a little too close for comfort for some in the White community.
It's also remarkable that Bullock is taking so little heat for her husband's politics – imagine if it came out that a respectable Black woman entertainer (think Halle Berry or Janet Jackson) was in a relationship with a Five Percenter – or even a mainstream Nation of Islam member?
Does anybody think that she'd get the pass that Bullock is getting here?

American pioneer Daniel Boone also had a thing for the "sylvania" suffix. If he'd had his way, Kentucky would have been called Transylvania and we'd be placing bets on horses at the Transylvania Derby. Boone hoped to call the colony's capital Boonesborough, but much to the explorer's chagrin, North Carolina and Virginia voted against Transylvania's existence.
Almost smack in the middle of the country could have been a state called Forgottonia. Comprising 14 counties in western Illinois, Forgottonia was an idea created by a group of disgruntled citizens who felt, well, forgotten. In the early 1970s, the would-be state's residents proposed an interstate that would run from Chicago to Kansas City, but they were rebuffed and so decided to try to split off.

Last Dollar Road
Originally a mining supply route, the Last Dollar Road is now an intermediate off-road mountain trail connecting Telluride to the Dallas Divide near Ridgway.
- Last Dollar Road Colorado is an easy-going introduction to the four-wheel drive trails near Telluride.
- The road begins near Telluride's airport and ends at the Dallas Divide near Ridgway.
- The trip is 21 miles and should take about 2 hours depending on conditions.
Once upon a time Last Dollar Road was a critical supply route for miners stationed in Telluride. Today, the mountain road offers a good introduction to off-road driving in the San Juans, and only requires four-wheel capability in wet conditions. A safe alternative to the hardcore Black Bear and Imogene four-wheel passes, Last Dollar Road is a scenic and worthwhile trip out of Telluride.
Driving Directions
Drive west from Telluride on CO-145. After nearly five miles, turn right on Last Dollar Road (look for signs to the airport). The road zigzags through several glamorous mountain homes before beginning the ascent into the mountains.
The road is 21 miles and takes about two hours to complete.
Last Dollar Road has great views of the Sneffel Ranges and Wilson Peaks. The area is also popular with ATV's and dirt bikes. It is best driven in late September/early October when the Aspens are electric yellow and the wildflowers are out in full force.

Food options determining vacation destinations
- t
- Transplant_DK Sep 6, 2011 12:43 PM
Are the food options ever a major/primary factor in choosing a city or country for you vacations? We're thinking of a long weekend to celebrate a 50th birthday in December, and so far the major determining factors are the weather and the food options. Stuff like things to see and do (besides eat), travel distance, costs, etc haven't even been mentioned!
If you're like us, where might you go in Europe?
Spain. Definitely for a 50th birthday. Start in San Sebastian and work your way in and around.
Runners-up: France. Austria. Germany. Norway.
I've been to a lot of places and have only been disappointed going to one place where I couldn't think of what they were known for in a culinary sense. Irrespective of what you want to see, you have to eat, so you may as well choose accordingly.
You can also throw Italy onto that list; I'm just not that keen. And Poland can be fun but expect really big portions.
re: wattacetti
+1 for Spain. The most exciting food in Europe is going on there at the moment - definitely add Seville to the list for their tapas, and as wattacetti says, work your way around.
re: wattacetti
Norway in December? Not all of it is snowbound - we have family in Stavanger, where the climate is much like northern Scotland. And you might have a chance to see the Northern Lights. But outside the really large cities, food choices are mostly pretty plain. Potatoes twice a day. Fish soup (which I think is always good, no matter which bestemor (grandma)'s recipe they use. Apple cake. There's a smoked lamb that's served in thin slices like prosciutto that's served at Christmas, and a rice pudding that's like kheer. The country pretty much shuts down...can't remember if it's noon on the 23rd or noon on Christmas Eve, but stays that way until the 27th. We spent Christmas there several years ago, and it was interesting gastronomically. But I would also point out that that far south in the country the sun rises around 9:15 a.m. and is gone by 3:45 p.m.
I love the country, it's beautiful, and would love to do the Hurtigruten (coastal steamer) in the winter under a full moon. But just be aware. And yes, Oslo and Bergen have better restaurants. And be aware: it is hellaciously expensive by American standards.
Most definitely! Aside from my annual food/girlfriends trip which is exclusively about food, dining options are always high on the priority list. Which is why you won't find my family at an all-inclusive resort or on a cruise. I carefully research and read on CH and get as much good advice from fellow CHers whenever we travel. I don't think I've ever been disappointed by the advice given here either.
As for Europe, I've not had the pleasure of much travel there, however, I have been to and cannot say enough good things about the food and culture of Portugal. Not to mention it's incredibly inexpensive there too. It's often referred to as Europe's best kept secret. The abundance of seafood, cured ham (think Jamon), leitao assada (suckling pig) and pastel de nada (egg custard tarts) is mind-blowing. And they have great wines that you won't find in the U.S. made of grape varieties unique to Portugal. If you care to know more I wrote a lot about it on my blog. There is a link on my profile.
Happy Trails!
Nine Decembers in Europe. Here are my favorites.
London for the theatre and especially pantomines. I have it on great authority that British food is no longer boiled for a minimum of 3 hours prior to service.
Nurenburg for the Christmas market. Drink the hot mulled wine and have the glazed nuts. Head down to Munich for the rest of your stay. I always found the food better there for some reason.
The chateaus on the Loire. No snow in the Alps so my bride and I headed here at the last minute for our Christmas holiday. Wonderful food in Angers and Nancy. Everything was open. No crowds of tourists and we had some great meals and wines along the way. Never made it to Paris as we were enjoying ourselves so much here.
Never made it to Vienna or Rome during December. The ski slopes always got in the way.
Please follow up with a trip report. And Happy Birthday!!
Croatia! Especially in Istria - extremely local and fresh. Some places grow/raise the produce, game, fruit, nuts, wines, olive oil, etc. right outside the door. Not only that but the white truffles are divine and in season in December. And think fresh grilled seafood and fish. PLUS Istria used to be part of Italy so has some Italian influences such as risotto, polenta, pasta, pizza...
I've been to many countries in Europe and we loved Croatia so much we bought a house there so I am a wee bit biased but with good reason. :-)
Every country/region we have been to in Europe has had great food - you just need to be open minded and adventurous.
re: chefathome
Chefathome, could you e-mail me (on my profile page). Have an off topic question re: Croatia if you don't mind...
re: meatn3
Yes, though more as a limiting factor than anything else. My husband and I are both vegetarians, which can prove to be a pain when travelling, especially if there's a language barrier. We're both apprehensive about international travel because vegetarianism is not very popular or prevalent in many countries.
re: tazia
Since you mention international travel rather than just Europe, worth mentioning that India has a huge tradition of vegetarianism, and many of their more well known dishes are vegetarian; many (most?) people in Indian are vegetarians. There are also very strong vegetarian cuisines in China and Japan, largely from Buddhist traditions, which can be largely vegan as well (dairy is not common in the cuisine).
re: limster
There are definitely vegetarians in India and it is a well understood concept (very often it excludes eggs too, but dairy is retained). However, it is definitely not "most" people and even "many" might be put to debate if we looked at it in terms of percentage of the population. Still, not only is it well understood, it is also a well respected lifestyle choice here and even non-vegetarians sometimes undergo periods of eating only vegetarian food. Of course, financial factors play a part in keeping meat a bit of a special occassion thing for many people, but also religious reasons may make an avid meat eater with cash to burn go for dal-chawal-sabzi for an extended period of time.
Anyway, what a digression, India certainly is worth a visit! You'll certainly get great food and see some amazing stuff.
re: Muchlove
I was under the impression that it was >50% vegetarians in India as a whole but it's possible that the Indians I hang out with who tell me these things happen to be from the vegetarian regions.
re: limster
I've seen figures from as little as 20% to as much as just under 50%. Can't speak for the accuracy of these figures though. A lot of people respect vegetarianism and view it as an ideal but may not follow this through. Remember that vegetarianism in India is actually a relatively "new" thing that was brought into Hinduism to win back followers from Jainism and Buddhism which both stressed non-violence to other beings (though Buddhism itself doesn't actually have to involve vegetarianism at all and I'll go as far as to say most Buddhists aren't veggie). The Hindu epics mention plenty if meals involving meat.
The "vegetarian myth" is another one of those things that gets pulled out along with "everyone speaks Hindi", "everyone watches Bollywood", etc. India is a huge country with many different cultures, religions, languages and cuisines. You can say something about one particular community in one particular area and it can be true, but go a mile up the road and ask someone else and it will be false.
For the OP, all that matters is that vegetarian food is very common and even non-vegetarians eat veggie at many meals.
One additional factor that can be important is season. To scratch the surface - game tends to be autumn/winter, many variety of mushrooms in the autumn, morels and asparagus in the spring, truffles in late autumn and winter etc...
I am mostly not interested in going to England for the dearth of unexciting food.
On the continent, I would go anywhere in Europe, though food was dreary in the Czech Republic. We ate very well in Poland - and even Slovakia though there was limited selection. All other places are intertesting enough for me to visit or revisit.
Anywhere else in the world I would find fascinating to eat as long as there is no serious food scarcity such as having nothing but millet in some destitute area of Africa.
Vienna would be great for a food weekend.
re: limster
I totally agree - I was going to expand a lot more but to be honest couldn't be bothered to respond to rather sweeping generalisations!
re: pj26
Ah, I see. I haven't been in a long time, so perhaps I stand corrected. My wife, who I consider to be an Anglophile, just came back from a trip to Cornwall, Birmingham, and Northampton, and she found the food to be dreadful. She is not a Chowhound, though, and I am sure she just went to average places. Still, the average seemed fairly abysmal to her.
The question is: are you talking about seeking out special experiences, or are you talking about the overall level of cuisine? I do not doubt there is seriously good food in London, just as you can find good food in most Europeam capitals.
re: Steve
You can find good food anywhere in Britain, but you can't expect to walk into an average restaurant or takeaway place and expect to be blown away. Some research beforehand is well worth the effort, and if self catering, the selections of fresh seasonal produce, cheese and meats is impressive and reasonably priced.
I've noticed that many American tourists treat finding restaurants in Britain different than on the continent. There's plenty of dreadful food in France and Germany too but somehow tourists seem to avoid these places more easily than in the UK.My guess is that Americans seem to assume because the language is English they can just walk into any place in the UK and they'll be fine, whereas in France or Germany the language barrier forces tourists to check guidebooks and ask hotels for recommendations, so they end up being directed to the better quality restaurants.
My BF and I plan all of our vacations around food! Even when we are camping in a NP; we plan for the camping food (and wine!) carefully. Usually those trips are a couple days camping, a night in a hotel with a nice diner out.
We do make it to Europe at least once a year, as he is from Paris....
Last years was France and Spain. We did 3 days in Barcelona, with wonderful meals and sights to see - not to mention the fabulous Bouceria Market - world famous food oggling, eating, shopping:). Then an easy days drive to San sebastian for 3 days; pinxto's hopping nightly, and a couple of lunches at world famous restos in area.. we ate at Mugaritz and Extebarri. Extabarri day was combined with late afternoon at Bilbao.
We would highly reccomend this for an anniversary holiday! Lot's to see and do, and of course eat! There are many threads here on CH for both destinations. Have a great time, and let us all know where you decide to go.
re: gingershelley
Thanks, GS! Barcelona and the surrounding area is definitely on our list, so I've made a note of your suggestions. San Sebastian sounds wonderful.
He's leaning towards Portugal right now, since neither of us has been there. I'm starting to research to see which of those might work out.
re: Transplant_DK
See my post above about Portugal. I can't say enough good things about the food, culture, architecture and value of a trip to Portugal.
San Sebastian would be lovely. I haven't been but I've read a great deal and it's on my "must do" list. Gourmet had an excellent issue devoted to the area a couple of years ago. You should go to www.epicurious.com and do a search.
re: PotatoHouse
I think you've got the right idea. Altough, I might start in Parma, eat my way through Modena to Bologna, then back to Parma.
But that's me.
re: thomco
We love France. We still talk about the amazing food in Israel. The Inbal hotel's breakfast is worth the flight. Seriously, Israel has the most amazing fruits and salads. And to finally taste what hummus is suppose to be will spoil you for life.
