I guess this is Leadville Colorado right? Years ago I had a strange experience in Silver City Colorado. We were on vacation with our little kids.

We went to eat in a building that had been an old saloon with a brothel upstairs, The Bent Elbow Saloon, I think it was called. We sat down & ordered our lunch and an old rinky tink piano started to play.

We were having a great time & laughing when all of a sudden I began to feel sad. In a few minutes the saddness turned to tears. I was crying like a tragedy had occurred. My family was shocked & embarrassed.

I went outside to compose myself and as soon as I got outside I felt fine & the tears stopped. I went back in & the tears started streaming again. I had never felt such terrible saddness.

Finally I had them bring my lunch outside & I didn't try to go back in again.

Any thoughts on this weird event?

Lay off the hard stuff in the afternoon.

I have heard of emotions leaving the strongest impression from those departed. Perhaps you were feeling what one of the inhabitants felt prior to their departure.
