The Sacred 5-minute Telluride Townpark Shower

I thought that I would repost my thoughts on the BEST SHOWERS YOU WILL EVER TAKE!!! I can’t wait for that feeling you get when you walk out clean into that fabulous festival sunshine, with that singular view of the mountains and all of the multicolors of the camps and the sweet aromas of food cooking mixed with the music in the air… (A shower at Courtney’s house is the only one that comes close to it!!!) OK, here it is again:

You might be a festivarian if… you lay awake nights trying to perfect your shower strategy!!!

Here’s mine…go in your tent… remove all foul kamping clothing and place in your foul kamping clothing dirty clothes bag…put on ONLY a shower dress/robe and flip-flops/crocs and head down to the showers… once there you will not have to remove socks, shoes, undress, etc… so you are right into the shower… open all toiletries and place in shower… turn on the cold water, start the stopwatch function on your cheap wristwatch, put in your quarters and GO!!! Shampoo hair first, then condition, then body-wash… rinse well; in the remaining time, work on your feet. If the hot water goes off while your feet are still a bit soapy thats OK, the cold water isn’t too bad on your feet only… then you towel off and pop back into your shower dress and flip flops and go back to you tent to dress. Advantages…

  1. You don’t have to schlep clothing to or fro the showers
  2. It takes less time and lets the next people into the showers faster
  3. You are unlikely to commit a “Skivvy foul” on the path. (see Dictionary)

Is that how long the shower is? :hop The minute you mentioned, " now shampoo" I began reading really fast. LOL

5 mins for two bucks in quarters :cheers

Since this year CampWanderIn is going for the Green Award
I think that WE should instutute the Shower with a Friend program !!!
:wink:

I hear the 5 min. is up to $3.00 this year…

Make sure to stop in Vegas and get yourself lots of rolls of quarters

Showers and toilet facilities are available on site. Showers are coin operated. $3 = five minutes of hot water. Cold water is free.

3 bucks Ouch !

And for those of you lowlanders that think a cold shower isn’t THAT bad if you are tuff enuff… let me assure you that a cold shower in T-ride is a LOT colder than a cold shower in other places… we are talking painful, newly-melted-snow, body-aching, Ron-won’t-fill-out-his-red-thong-anymore cold!!

LMFAO !!!
I love you Michelle !
:cheers

I am in the posession of a picture that proves what Michele is saying but since this is a “Family” site I must refrain… :bubbles

OH…And there is also the threat that came from the pictured person which I should consider! :evil

Easy there Mlady !
:cheers

Luv you guys right back!! And remember, only one “L” in Michele- There is no “HELL” in my name, only in my Mai-Tais!!!

No worries Ron…the pictured person is not you!!! Cody would be Ultra Mad at me! You know how I hate having people mad at me!!! :secret

Party in the shower :thumbsup Who’s bringing the patron

You Are !
:cheers

I want to back-up what Michele said… the water turned cold once on my head about 5 years ago and I can still feel the pain… It felt like someone stuck a frozen dagger directly into my brain…

Always do hair first…

Sounds like that would make you forget about any hangover you might have. :eek

Wilco saying;“Party in the shower Who’s bringing the patron?”
+
Ron saying; “You Are !”

RUTT RO!

And you are Too !

Ron’s bringing the beer chasers

Beer chasers? Never mind then…I’m in! :cheers :lol :lol :lol
But how will we hold the limes?..RUT RO again.
