How about this??? (Colorado amenity)

Peak Provisions!! They'll stock the frige/kitchen for us in Colorado! (and it isn't very expenisive!)

My thoughts are just the basics so we have something to eat, without having to go right out and shop, after being on the road all day (like staying at the beach - argh). Those of staying with me, let me have your preferences!

Bottled water - 1 case? 2 cases?
Breakfast stuff - bagels, (english) muffins, jam, juice, COFFEE, tea, (Milk?), creamer.
>We can "pocket" equal/spenda, etc on our travels, huh?
"Munchees" - veggie sticks, fruit, Ranch dip, hummus, chips, salsa, etc.

WINE (red or white, ya'll?) - I prefer the "BLACK BOX" wines. Really good quality. Not a lot of money. One box = 5 bottles of wine for $24.
Beer (check their list - pick TWO?)

I'm figuring that for $150 or less we can have this taken care of for us! (Alcohol extra).

>>How about we arrange to meet at the Keystone Lodge on the 18th? (in the evening, of course). They've got like 16 different restaurants in there. Ida Belle's sounds low key enough to suit, but I haven't been able to find a review. I'm open to suggestions!!

I could not find a reataurant called Ida Belle's. There is a street named that with a lot of restaurants. Some of them have reviews. However...I don't know when the reviews were made.

With any luck CC and I will be there to join you for dinner. :)

Note..Jay's cafe is gone but replaced by a Moon something...?? It had good reviews for breakfast and lunch...

Also...this looks like fun....I have no idea what to expect there or what the activities are....so....I've been looking to see what is offered at keystone.

As a suggestion for all of you low-landers... lol
I've seen a lot of people from lower elevations get altitude sickness from not drinking enough water. You should all go through a case of water each in all probability. Also if you feel lightheaded, dizzy, have a headache, woozy, etc. immediately drink water and sit down for a few minutes.

I full expect to have a headache. When I go visit my friends who live in the interior, I always have a headache the first day.

So, how long does it usually take to adapt?

I've been perusing Peak Provisions. I'm up for coffee, appetizer/munchies, and breakfast foods. Oh, and 2 cases of water. No wine for me, thanks! :wink:

Hopefully, less than four days.:blink:

:laughing: It should take most people about a day or two. I've always been lucky and had no problem adjusting to altitude changes, so I can't tell you for sure, but from what I hear it's usually less than 2 full days.

I knew there was a good reason to arrive a day early!!

My Garmin maps list Ida Belle's, along with about a dozen other restaurants IN the Conference Center/Lodge (I've had a devil of a time finding the relative location of ANY of the food places in relation to the Conference Center.) As I recall, it isn't uncommon for a resort facility to have many different dining options on campus... the better to ensure you spend your money with them, while you stay :wink:

When you pick one, can you email them a reservation under TMW...if you don't mind? It would be cool if we could all meet for dinner.
