Ski Lodge: Millers Idlewild Inn : Adventures in Snow Business

The following is an excerpt from Chapter 17: "White Christmas" Throughout the week between Christmas and New Year's a steady stream of people tromped into the Inn - seeking a room for the night. "We're sorry, but most of our accommodations have been reserved since August," Tonto would explain, over and over. "Couldn't we just sleep on your couch?" Of course, we couldn't allow our lounge to become an overnight depot for people who didn't plan ahead. Denver, where there were plenty of motels, was only two hours away. It would be very unfair to guests who had anticipated their vacations since summer to crowd the Inn with latecomers. Weary of explaining, Tonto turned to me one afternoon. "Do you know who the most underappreciated person in the Bible was?" "No, who?" "That innkeeper in Bethlehem. Here comes Mary and Joseph - with a jackass yet. He did his best, offered them a place to sleep in the stable. No wonder there wasn't any room at the Inn. Didn't they know it was Christmas?"
