I use this for identifying *.cfn.json and *.cfn.yml files as JSON and YAML format cloudformation templates. Their filetypes are set to cfn_json and cfn_yaml respectively. I can then have custom highlighting of key attributes and/or custom snippets set up that are not polluting my editor when I am working with straight javascript/yaml intended for other purposes. This in on mac os x after installing vim 7.3 along with vim-snipmate and vim-snippets plugins. Someone feel free to improve on this.

1. in ~/.vimrc:

au BufRead,BufNewFile *.cfn.json set ft=cfn_json
au BufRead,BufNewFile *.cfn.yml set ft=cfn_yaml
au BufRead,BufNewFile *.cfn.yaml set ft=cfn_yaml

Winter

In winter, prime attractions are skiing and snowboarding, with Breckenridge Resort and Keystone Resort nearby. Copper Mountain and Arapahoe Basin are slightly further away. If this is your thing, you can rent skis/snowboards here for pickup at any of these resorts. If you are new to skiing or snowboarding, I would look into booking private (expensive) or group (economical) lessons at Breck or Keystone. The ski season is generally from Thanksgiving through mid April, with good

For quickly iterating on ec2 instance bootstrapping without having to go through a cloudformation deployment cycle:

1. Install sshfs or its mac port
2. Deploy via cloudformation with minimal userdata script
3. Mount the ec2-users home directory in your project (we will use a remote directory)
4. Copy the ops code into the remote directory
5. Edit files in the remote directory with your editor of choice set up as you have in your local env
6. Test your changes by executing them as root from an ssh session on the remote host
7. When things work to your liking, copy the ops code from the remote directory back to its location in your project
8. Test bootstrapping via cloudformation stack deployment
