As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.

I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

I know right?

The road is US-36 Denver Boulder Turnpike. As the name implies, it connects Denver and Boulder as well as other cities along the way and beyond. This is the final stretch before you get into Boulder. You go uphill for a bit and then at some point you reach the top and it just opens up wide and you see Boulder, Colorado University, the Flatirons, the whole thing. One of my favorite views.
