Where does it stop?

I like Colorado. I love Montana. That said, I am off today for a weekend trip to Colorado. In today's Wall Street Journal is a piece on a 900 plus acre ranch in Redstone, CO, just out of Aspen that was recently purchased for $47,000,000.

Must be hard for the locals to afford adjacent property. Very hard.

That would be an expensive cow-calf operation to say the least.

And speaking of Aspen, George Zachar said last week that for the first time in local memory (and yes, he checked several sources), the private jets were parked in 3 full rows at the local airfield (exceeding the old high water mark of two), with smaller aircraft literally parked under the wings of the bigger planes.

The dozens of commercial flights were solidly booked.

Folks looking to join the ongoing party might be interested in a new house on the market: "Prince Bandar bin Sultan, the former Saudi Arabian ambassador to the United States, is selling his palatial home in Starwood Ranch for $135 million in what is likely the most expensive single-family residence listed in the nation."

Only in America. Wow!
