description: Let popular travel writer Pam Grout introduce you to Colorado's weirdest, wackiest, and most outrageous people, places, and things. Read about Telluride's New Sheridan Hotel, which promises to pay for a guest's funeral if they die while staying there; the Nothing Festival, where T-shirts are $15 for those who have a sense of humor, $20 if they don't; and the Golden Door doggie spa (packages include guided play time, bathing, haircut and blow dry, "paw-dicure," gourmet lunch, and twenty-minute massage). The author's witty narrative not only entertains but also provides choice material to repeat at cocktail parties.This definitive collection will be a great read for Colorado residents and anyone else who enjoys local humor and trivia with a twist.
