Offseason

The mountains have closed (well maybe) and everybody has returned to their respective homes, other jobs, schools, and countries. Not many are left in town, but those who are love it. Quiet streets, a reduced selection of where to get lunch or dinner, bikes are coming out, walking to and from town, relaxing in the sun, poolside time if weather permits, and the feeling of knowing most everybody in town. It is a special feeling as I have never experienced it elsewhere in my life. Aspen is truly a resort town, people come here to work and visit only certain months of the year. Spring and Fall are NOT them, ha... it is seriously extremely quiet compared to the summer and winter! A welcome break from the busy seasons. Now onto the wonderful Rocky Mountain Spring Season, which has already brought us a decent snow storm on May 1 + 2. Enjoy the spring!
