And the Royal Gorge Route is a fun ride, though too short – should go all the way to Salida.
I don’t know if you’d get as many tourists on the RGR if the ride lasted more than 2 hours — tourists like to be on the go. But it WOULD be lovely if we could get a lot more rail service to all the places people now have to drive to reach.
If you want to make the trip last longer during the main season, I believe you can start on the train at the depot in Canon City, get off at the access point underneath the bridge, take the vertical tram up to it, see all THOSE sights, then finish your ride on a later train. It costs extra, of course, but I think you get a bit of a discount for buying both sets of tickets at once.
It was very neatly arranged, with coffee available in the book area, and they had some great stuff. I ALMOST bought one of those peacock/keyhole backed wicker chairs that were so popular in the 60s. We are looking for comfy book shop chairs, you see. But we were a little concerned that it would not hold up under constant use, so we passed it by.
to win an election.
1) is a non-voter (very likely), or
2) votes party line one way or the other (the other likely way she could be completely ignorant of the front-running governor candidate barely a week before the election).
So no, I don’t think we have to worry about either side “winning over” this person.
I got the very strong impression that this lady is one of the people who has bought into the idea that IN EVERY CASE politician = corrupt, and they are all out to get her and her friends. I could have done better with her posing as a Jehovah’s Witness selling Amway!
What’s ironic is that she was on hand-carried oxygen, which tells me there’s about a 95% chance her life depends on how and/or whether politicians continue to support the programs that provide her health care.
In the ideal world we’re all working towards, we can change these people’s minds. But I think it’s going to be a long slog.
That’s why we need as many people to vote as possible. Make sure the ignorant and apathetic turn elections.
Great story….and also thank you for being a nurse. A very underappreciated, underpaid profession!
I’m actually a retired nurse, though I keep my hand in a little by doing medical technical-ese translations when asked and giving other advice (within my level of expertise).
Running a book shop is mostly easier than nursing. When it’s not, at least I can sit down and rest for a while without getting written up or something. 🙂
Uninformed and will vote straight R ticket.
Jerry got ice cream named after him. Helicopter had to settle for Marine 1 being named in his honor. (the presidential helicopter.)
I’m thinking maybe I should make my screenplay a collaborative effort!
Does anyone know the mode of transportation that Lt. Governor-elect Joe Garcia will be using to get from Pueblo to Denver for next Tuesday’s election night celebration? I have a suggestion!
