"ARE you skiers?” asked the desk clerk at the Best Western. When we said yes, she explained that they had certain rules: no skis in the rooms, no beer bottles in the pool area, no bare feet anywhere in the hotel. Lastly, and this one she stressed with the weariness particular to a service employee required to enforce such a rule: lastly, there will be no cooking in the rooms.

Hahaha - I used to know the whole story behind that last rule.

It has something to do with a group of aspiring guides or outdoor adventure students, a toaster oven, and a meal of fish. I hink it was fish - it was something that made a large area of the hotel quite aware of what was for dinner that night anyways...
