I got tired of coding, so I went for a walk at 1:30AM. It was about -8F, and snot froze in my beard. But its so quiet here at night. Straight out of the old west...

If you are in the colorado springs area and like slots, and low limit blackjack and poker (big bet is $5), then I highly suggest a visit. I would really like to take the gold mine tours, but they are not open in winter. Cripple Creek is about 50 miles into the rockies from Colorado Springs, is at 9494 feet, and generally kicks ass.
