Durango, CO

So we've been in Durango for 3 days now, and really couldn't have found a better place to spend our days off. It's another mountain town that's 10x longer than it is wide, but there's a central downtown area with all sorts of food & shops, and there's a free trolly that runs through town and even out to the RV park we stayed at. One of my last clean shirts is from a Chadron State FB team camp and I've been getting a lot of comments about it, since Fort Lewis College (here in town) probably hasn't beaten CSC since 1980-something.

Ty made a flyer on his computer and had 400 of them printed at a Kinko's for $10, so we spent most of yesterday afternoon/evening walking around and promoting our show. Hopefully we get a good turnout since part of our deal was 90% of the door. We stopped by The Summit (the venue we're playing at) yesterday and talked shop for a while and checked the place out. It's up a flight of stairs - we hate stairs. Most of our equipment is stored in huge flight cases that weigh 100+ lbs. each. They all have wheels, which makes rolling them easy but carrying them is just brutal, especially at 6000' above sea level.

I don't have any pictures because I haven't taken any since we've been here. Next time. Peace.
