Really, really great…

Fun Zone…
This photo is from the lobby of the Hotel Eleganté in Colorado Springs. They’ve really embraced the idea of fun–in case you can’t read it, the bed has a “try me” sign on it. Interestingly, the hotel has a huge …

Yesterday (Saturday, October 18th, 2015) was the 2015 Waldo Canyon 5K run – a run to help fund recovery from the Waldo canyon fire of a few years ago. As you can probably tell, the official uniform of the run …
In case of rabies…
I’ve always been fascinated by incongruous or confusing signage. This one is from Tintagel in Cornwall. I assume that if you see someone with rabies, you can jam the ring down on his head to make it harder for him …
