My wife and I (as well as Steve C and wagga) will be in the holy city of Lone Pine from June 10 to 13, to do something good for the WHA.
For those who don't know what is going on this weekend, Steve C will tell you more.
My wife and I will be staying at the Whitney Hostel. It will our first stay at the prestigous hostel. We never have stayed in a hostel so we are kind of excited about it. Spoke with Doug Sr. on the phone to get the beta on hostel life. The only things missing are room service and a wake up call. But who needs that anyway.
Hope to see some of you who post here. It will be a good feeling to meet "pen pals."
We hope to saunter up to Thor via the North Fork on Saturday, June 12, dependent upon other matters outside of my control.
We will definitely be up at the Portal Store stuffing our faces with that Moose Burger and Fries while chasing it down with an IPA.
So if you are in the area, drop by.
I could be wearing my chartreuse yellow shirt with my wife one-half block in front or behind me. She doesn't want to be seen in public with me with that shirt on.
Or I could wear my Beretta hunter orange and camouflage vest. On second thought maybe not. Don't want anyone to think I was armed for crying out loud! I won't be packing any heat.
You can spot me with a black cap with the latin phrase "de oppresso liber" in honor of my late father. He was one of them.
Or you can spot me with my red Marine Corps cover (cap). Now, you can't miss that from a mile away.
Or, if you spot a beautiful blonde with "some guy" (sorry, Bob R.), chances are it will be me.
Or, you can "challenge and password" me. Your challenge word is "cujo." My response (password) is "danu."
Either way, I will be noticed without being too egoic.
Hope to see some of you...
Have fun.
