I-Aspen, iColorado iyaziwa ngobunewunewu bayo: iimeko ezomeleleyo zekhephu kodwa ezixineneyo kunye nokutya emva kwexesha lokutya kuza ebusika; iziganeko ezingaqhelekanga zokupheka nezangaphandle ezifana nokutya kunye newayini yeklasi kuza ehlotyeni; kunye nesikhululo seenqwelomoya esincinci esineejethi zabucala ezichaza indlela ekhuselekileyo yeentaba unyaka wonke. (Akumangalisi ukuba uluhlu lwe-A-celebs luthontelana apho!)

Kodwa awudingi i-Hollywood-style paycheck ukuze ujikeleze ukutyelela kwindawo yokuqala yeColorado. Ndwendwela ngexesha "lemfihlakalo" ukusukela phakathi ku-Meyi ukuya phakathi kuJuni, ngaphambi kokuba intwasahlobo iqhume ehlotyeni-kwaye uyakufumana iparadesi yendalo, ngexabiso eliphantsi.

Kwaye bafaka imali kwizithako ezinje ngeswekile yekhokhonathi, isipelingi, umgubo weamangile, kunye neoyile ecinezelweyo ebandayo.
