Monticello, Utah

Motellin it for the second nite in a row.  
Beer Report!  Two on tap at Kip's in Pagosa Springs:  Pinstripe Red Ale, SKA Brewing, Durango.  Lucky U IPA, from Breckinridge.  Both good.  Pevious to that, i bought two sixpacks in Taos brewed by the Santa Fe Brewing Co.  Pale Ale and Nut Brown Ale.  I liked the Nut Brown better.
Today i learned to use a dinner knife to break into a motel room!  Management TOLD me to do it!  Turns out we weren't supposed to lock the knob from the inside side as we closed the door.  They could have warned us....    
As we left town this morning (no, the cops were Not after us) we took a side trip into the National Forest for some fine Cross-country skiing.  My poles worked fine this time, but we both agreed that our 20+ year-old equipment need upgrading.
In the afternoon we side-tripped to Mesa Verde and were rewarded with a private tour of the Spruce Tree Cliff Dwelling.  It was very cool.
Now that we are in Utah, microbrews may be hard to find, but our motel room has 3 copies of the book of Mormon.  i have started reading it!  While drinking beer, of course.
