super cheap hot tubs image

Q. I want to find a hotel a that is 75-80 $ a night in the Breckenridge area also towns near by are Frisco and Dillon. I have stayed at the Super 8 in Dillon but they raised there rates :/
Thanks! :)

Answer
Frisco is the closest location to Breckenridge slopes because the Summit Stage can take you to the gondola within thirty minutes of stepping out of your motel. That makes Frisco as close as being in lodging almost anywhere within Breckenridge and a half-hour closer than the Super 8 in Silverthorne-Dillon. I do not know all of the rates, about $65-75 per night at Alpine Inn or Snowshoe Lodge, but consider all of the following locations less than a block from the Frisco transit center or bus routes. Personally, I have my friends stay at Alpine Inn, immediately across from the bus station, which is fairly modern with a great hot tub, but ask for a room away from the freeway to avoid traffic noise:

Alpine Inn
Best Western Lake Dillon Lodge
Frisco Lodge
Summit Inn
Snowshoe Lodge
Hotel Frisco

Should I use primer with light colors?

Andy

I bought a new house with off-white (slightly yellowish) walls. We are now planning to paint the house in stages with very light colors (choosing from the lightest three shades on those color bar samplers that they have for free at Home Depot). My first project is the master bedroom/bathroom with the lightest shade of blue on the sampler card. I have no idea what kind of paint was used by the builder, but I know that we have bought two gallons of a "super washable" flat paint base with the color already mixed. Do I need primer for this project or for the other projects with one or two shades darker in green, purple, and red?

As a side question: The paint can says to mix 1 (or 1/2?) pint of water per gallon and to wet the roller before dipping it in the paint. Did the store already added the water when they mixed the colors, or do I need to do that in addition to what the store did to make the paint? Does the roller need water before every paint dip? Does the brush need water?
I think that I'm starting to understand better about the purpose of primer, but I still have a question about reds. Some people seem to think that red is a special color requiring primer. I doubt quite understand if it has to do with painting over red with another color (similar shades), painting red over another color (similar shades), or painting different shades or kinds of reds on top of each other. Are reds special, and if so, why?

Answer
No, No & No.
#1 No - There is no need to Prime the (interior) walls unless the walls are in a high moisture area like the bathroom, or a room with a hot tub.( Then use Kilz brand primer for moisture barrier) If your new color is darker than the original, you may not even need two coats, if you thouroughly, & evenly cover the walls in the first coat.
#2 No - Adding water to anything simply dilutes it. This includes the pigments in the tint. Some Professionals will dilute paints when using a sprayer, to help it spray "looser", but also to save money, & increase profits; paint is not cheap, as you already know by now.
#3 No - If you dilute your brush or roller when getting started, it will only make the paint inconsistant. Start with a good coat and finish with a good coat.
Oh, just a tip. Do all af your trimming first (with a good brush)
at the ceiling, around window moulding, in angles, base boards, doors, whatever. This way your brush lines won't show over your smooth, clean wall (from rolling)
Also, take a phillips head screwdriver and take off all wall socket covers for light switches and electrical. This way you don't have to trim around them.

Anyway, good luck.
