I can't remember if you are the house person but boy if you haven't seen the cave house in glenwood yet you need to. 217 ROSE BUD IRON MTN when I was a raftguide we'd say it was Bruce Wayne's house. It's for sale and they have photos and a virtual tour

Okay, I was waiting to answer this because I was hoping they'd get the website up, but if they have I can't find it.

Anyways. FUCK YES I LOVE THIS HOUSE! I forget when I first heard about it, but it has always delighted me.

My favorite line in the listing is: "A portion of the cave has been used as a personal dwelling by the owners for the past 4 decades, however sellers make no claims regarding the habitability of the Cave of the Chimes."

That view!

Look at this nonsense. I love it so much. I imagine taking the dog out to pee in the middle of the night might get difficult, though. And I hope you don't have to walk down the stairs on the left there as the only access...bringing home groceries would be an ADVENTURE if so.

You want a bigger fridge? Too bad. Also love that they still have an over-the-sink window that just opens on. Rock.

I have questions about this bedroom/pooltable room combo we've got going on here.

What lives behind the TV? Who knows!

Side thought: I wonder how the hell they have running water in this house.

Okay so. This bedroom is just. Open to the kitchen? So that's a thing. Do appreciate the giant jar of chocolate chips, though.

Then through that doorway at the back there, you're just. In "unfinished" cave:

Which then leads to the pooltable room:

And the bathroom in the pooltable bedroom is just. Open to the whole bedroom. Lotta interesting divisions of space going on here.

Also. This is the only bathroom I have seen so far. I did not see one in the first half of the house.

Now, back to where we made the turn to go to the pooltable room. If you DON'T turn and just go straight, you access the rest of the cave:

And it does have some very pretty formations in it, but...is that tin slide thing involved in the plumbing? I feel like it is involved in the plumbing. Which is. Concerning.

You can go real deep into the cave too. And, note, there's no doors or anything between the house and the rest of the cave.

CAVE HOUSE.

Fun concept. I would live in a cave house. But this one needs work.

"nice warbonnet surprise"

Running on trackage rights on Union Pacific former Rio Grande trackage finds colorful BNSF 578 rolling eastbound into Glenwood Springs, Colorado. A nice award from taking a day long break from the slopes skiing in Aspen - April 11, 1998.

On July 6, 1994.... 14 Hotshots/Smoke Jumpers/Helitack Wildlands Firefighters on "Storm King Mountain" at the South Canyon Fire, near Glenwood Springs, Colorado lost their lives to mother nature's wrath.

Kathi Beck, Tamera Bickett, Scott Blecha, Levi Brinkley, Terri Hagen, Bonnie Holtby, Rob Johnson, Jon Kelso, Jim Thrash, Richard Tyler, Doug Dunbar, Robert Browning, Roger Roth, Don Mackey.

(On a plaque on Storm King Mnt, CO)

Do not stand on this mountain and weep.

We are not here, we do not sleep.

We are the thousand winds that blow.

We are the diamond glint on the snow.

We are the sunlite on ripened grain.

We are the tempered Autumn Rain.

When you awaken in the morning hush,

We are the swift up-lifting rush of the quiet birds in circled flight.

We are the soft stars that shine at night.

Do not stand on this mountain and weep.

We are not here, we do not sleep.

Glenwood Springs; I went on a road trip with Cailin, Eva and Korey since we all had a day off together. Korey drove us the hour and a bit west to where there was much less snow. The little town has these butterfly wings everywhere that you can pose with. We bought expensive chocolates that Korey left in the car in the sun and all melted into a blob. The squad made a special trip to Mama’s Pierogis for some authentic Polish dumplings. Eva and Cailin went to the hot springs at Iron Mountain while Korey and I got coffees and went for a wander around the streets and looked in the shops. At the cafe there was a wall of photos of all the dogs that had enjoyed a puppercino! There was a Mexican convenience store near where we had parked the car so we got some snacks and Korey also bought a bag of marinated chicken that got left in the hot car all afternoon and had to be thrown away. We regrouped and then drove up to the Glenwood Caverns to ride the gondola up and explore the caves.
