Our next Airbnb
After a couple of days in a motel in Cortez (Mesa Verde NP - separate blog coming soon!) we drove a short way to Durango in Colorado, and met up with my cousin Allan, wife Sue and friend, Roy. A great place
But not at all sure where they got this name from
Helluva place and a devil to find 😈.
Shady Lady
Graham wanted to stop here, but I think he was a bit late in the day to meet Madam Fanny.
Our town
Should have stayed here.
Crummy court
Not up to Heversham's standards!
Chocolate Factory
Have blogged several times about our favourite choccy heaven in Australia, and this small one in Durango was pretty upmarket, but not at all sure about chocolate covered crisps (chips to you Americans.)
Story of Jack Schitt
Seen in window of shop in Durango
Translation - Many people are at a loss for a response when someone says "You don't know Jack Schitt." Now you can intellectually handle the situation.
Jack is the son of Awe Schitt and O. Schitt. Awe Schitt, the fertilizer magnate, married O. Schitt, the owner of Needeep N. Schitt Inc. They had one son, Jack. In turn Jack Schitt married Noe Schitt, the deeply religious couple produced 6 children: Holie Schitt, Fulla Schitt, Giva Schitt, Bull Schitt, and the twins: Deap Schitt and Dip Schitt. Against her parents' objections, Deap Schitt married Dumb Schitt, a high school drop out.
However, after being married 15 years, Jack and Noe Schitt divorced. Noe Schitt later remarried Ted Sherlock and, because her kids were living with them, she wanted to keep her previous name.
She was then known as Noe Schitt-Sherlock. Meanwhile, Dip Schitt married Loda Schitt and they produced a son of nervous disposition, Chicken Schitt. Two other of the 6 children, Fulla Schitt and Giva Schitt, Were inseparable throughout childhood and subsequently married the Happens brothers in a dual ceremony.
The wedding announcement in the newspaper announced the Schitt-Happens wedding. The Schitt-Happens children were Dawg, Byrd, and Hoarse. Bull Schitt, the prodigal son, left home to tour the world. He recently returned from Italy with his new Italian bride, Pisa Schitt.
So now when someone says, "you don't know Jack Schitt," you can correct them.
