Want a home in the Colorado Rockies?

Lines:
That is a perty house. I say a bunch of us chip in, write an awesome essay, and win the thing. With enough of us, we can afford taxes!

SeanBateman:
I already live in Colorado! Right on the fuckin front range of the rockies!


But yeah people do this from time to time. 2 years ago in my home town there was a house in Flo Ride Ah that was totally goin for like $100
+ essay but I mean if you are really that desperate than go for it. I do not need to live in a house right now.

It is pretty simple.  THey said they will return all the submitted entries if there aren't at least 2,000 of them.  2,000 x 100 = $200,000.  If they get more then 2,000 entries, then, they get even more.  However, I believe that there might be legal issues even if the contest was completely on the up and up.  Hell, it is going to a po box.  They might just see how many people they can get to send them $100 and then run.

That's the thing though, I live not 10 minutes away from the mountains (just outside Ft. Collins) and yet I haven't been to them in years. And I really want to go, but I never get up early and never have the time. Plus, all my friends are guys who resent having to slowly jog from any one place to another, let alone hike up a mountain.

I have heard about the shining hotel, but never gone to see it. Never seen the movie, actually. Not a big horror person. I have some friends that are big hikers, but I am not really one, I don't do well going up and down hills, especially not with another thousand feet or more tacked on to the elevation. I just like the scenery for the most part.

Honestly, my dream would be to buy some land up in the mountains and build a gothic revival style house there. Just live up there in the mountains, preparing for the zombies.

It mentioned the property taxes too.  It was around $1800, or something like that.  I'm not sure if that's expensive or not.
