If you want to enjoy that feeling of zoning out on the couch as Thanksgiving's bounty of carbohydrates and tryptophan-laced turkey begins its mysterious dance in your emergent spare tire, you're probably going to embark on some kind of travel to get there. Sometimes that means you'll become a bundle of stress before you reach that final destination---and a second slice of pumpkin pie. Denver International Airport and Colorado Springs Airport will both experience big crowds this week, with Sunday being the busiest day, writes the Gazette [2], which provides a handy list of air-travel tips that just might give you some kind of an advantage over less-prepared travelers: First, check with your airline for your flight status--online if possible. Arrive about two hours early for your flight. Follow the carry-on rules. And don't bring wrapped gifts, because that's apparently what terrorists would do. But most travelers aren't going to be rubbing elbows on a packed jet. They're going to be driving---about 84 percent of all Thanksgiving travelers, to be exact. Go easy on the spiked apple cider: Police and troopers around the state will be out en force, looking for drunk drivers (via The Associated Press [3]). As for the weather, it thankfully doesn't appear to pose any problems for Wednesday, Thanksgiving Day, or the coming weekend. Though the week in Denver has started off a bit cold and windy, the forecast for mid-week calls for relative warmth---nearly 60 degrees by Black Friday (via 7News [4]).
