Could the town get any smaller?

So today we went and explored some local towns.
We didn't know what we were geting ourself into....
We went to a town called Como. It had to be the smallest town in North America, not to mention the fact there was not a single human being to be found. Apparently the town 'shuts down' and no one comes out of their houses. It reminded me of the movie The Village. No joke.
And the travel brochure made it sound so big and eventful...... it was wrong I guess.
And all the outhouses. I thought we lived in the 21st century... maybe they don't.
Oh and then the next town (I can't remember the name) was even SMALLER. Something we didn't think was possible... there were some cats.... that was about it...
So we decided to go back to Fairplay and checked out the snowboard rental stuff and bought some t-shirts and hoddies. Such tourists

Tomorrow we're going to Breckenridge (Breck as the locals call it) to go snowboarding and maybe even tubing.Now tubing sounds boring I know,but its really cool. You get launched out this tube and then once you get to the end you get hocked on a cable and get pulled back up. There's even night tubing. Even cooler.

Side note: Breck hosted the Winter Dew Tour last week. Sad I missed that. Maybe Sean White is still hanging around town... hehehehe.

Ok,we're about to play Monopoly. Again.
Pics of adventures soon :)
