[...] Yes–CanadaGoose and Megwere correct: I spent Monday night and Tuesday in Aspen. (Or, ”Aspin,” as Harry and Lloyd might call it.) It was the usual Colorado mountain town mix of swells, old hippies, college ski bum waiters, immigrant seasonal laborers, and the strolling poor–only moreso.

“a blog tee shirt designed, yet”. I’m picturing the intersection of the clenched fist and female sign from the early seventies with the double thumbed fist holding a peyote button. All in keeping with recent travels and pictures.

Can/t be Vail. Gotta be Breckenridge? Is the Whale/s Tail still there?

Hey, that reminds me. I want a Historiann T shirt. I wonder if there could be a generic template design, like with the stone family at the top of the blog screen. Then everyone could reproduce their favorite lead post paragraph from the archive, with corresponding graphic.

I’m pretty sure it’s Aspen… same sign as from this story, right?

Nope! We’re in Colorado. That should be a pretty big clue. Think gonzo, folks! Gonzo!
