Tent don't look quite right!

I been ta Bailey. I know what they've got there for girls like you.
My family used to take summer vacations there about half a century ago. It may have changed a bit since then. My family also vacationed in sleepy little towns like Aspen and Jackson WY. I remember watching my first Marx Bros. movie and eating Space Food Sticks in a big tent in Jackson. I saw my first Woody Allen movie in a shack-like indie theater in Aspen as hippies roamed the streets outside. :laugh:

:laugh: LOL! (by the way, I hear LOL doesn't mean laugh out loud anymore). ???
Bailey must have been very nice a few decades ago. I stayed at a resort that is being renovated called Glen-Isle. Unfortunately it is right next to the road which has become a major highway and is the favorite route of trucks bringing stuff to market in Denver. The campground was about a mile away from the lodge but it was just as noisy either place. Plus, the truck headlights shined into my tent at night. And there was quite a bit of rain. Although I have a rainfly on my tent, it can only do so much. Nevertheless I enjoyed camping out and especially when I came home and was able to appreciate my little abode with its many comforts. . .especially its relative peace and quiet!!

Did you send up a prayer of thanks that your renter's not playing her harmonica?

They say it's an expression of irony. Those Millennials; they sure do like irony.

Yes, she's not my renter anymore...she finally moved out in May and I've been too freaked out to advertise for another one. So it's very peaceful and quiet up there.
