Well, this isn't a timely post, but worthy of mention. As of the fall of 2012, we paid off the condo and took it off of the rental market. It's just reserved for friends and family now and will no longer be rented out through the association.
Renting the unit out did offset costs somewhat, but having strangers in and out just didn't set well with us, and having to constantly do additional maintenance due to careless renters was adding more expense. Plus, its our little getaway - a place for family memories. While we could still use it under the rental program, it was sterile - we had to remove our personal pictures and touches that made it ours.
We'll continue to use our unit a few times per year - ski trips, summer vacations, and a few weekend jaunts now and then. Someday we may end up in Colorado permanently again and this place will be ready for us to enjoy.
I don't expect many of you read this blog, so there won't be a lot posted here but we will leave it up as a reference for people who ask about our place and may want to go enjoy it themselves.
