 "Seeing how we'll be cooking on a "Man grill" eating "Man dogs" with "Man beans"  and maybe some 'Man chili" I haven't really thought of anything other gettin down & dirty caveman style on the grub! "

  That post had 12 pages!  Little did I know, at that time, that in the next few months month,  my life was going to change.  April, I found out was going to be 'R.I.F.'d "Reduction in force" or laid off in May.  And in Aug, my dad passed away  It was a Tuesday,Aug. 4th @10:30am my step mom called to inform me of his passing that morning :smt010
I still remember planning for that trip, the huge storm that blew in Friday night, leaving snow on the surrounding hills, then Saturday being beautiful!
  Discovering that my OB hull started to leak at the dredded drivewell.  The area I thought was reinforced with many hot glue sticks.  Didn't help.
   Ben I think was producing a "Spider" movie, chasing Mooch through the eyes of a spider. ( I think it was the second F&C)
  Before my lay-off back then, I seemed to have time for these events, lately not so much? Traveling a lot more for work now, back & forth between Oregon and Az. house & yard chores, honey Do's
I need to find that happy time again!  I miss attending these events!

Troy - I still remember the time you didn't bring your rainfly with you when it stormed on us...and then your camp chair blew into the fire pit and was partially burned....yet, you still had a big smile in your face = YOU ARE the Ultimate STORM TROOPER!!! I miss those days too!

  Yeah that was an epic event for me!  GOOD times!  I forgot the movie was a FROG! Hahahaha. I do remember Ben sporting some of the local  wiledife on his forearm and Mooch screaning like a little gurl! :smt044  (Ben had a big hairy trantula on his arm)  :smt044  Who knew my $19 Ace hardware tent would absorb more water than it shed in those hurricain winds!

  Just found out that I may be headed back to Israel in Oct for 30day :smt012 Pretty much the entire month.  Boss asked me "If I'd be willing to go back in Oct for 30 days?"  :smt013  Hell no I don't want to go back!  But I can't say that and retain my employment.  Sent a reply to my boss tonight, so I guess I'll find out tomorrow.

We have a tool there that they want one of us to go. (not me but my global product support guy). I say hell no. Not till after the election. Is not a job.  Its an adventure.

Hi Troy,

Wow!  I remember you getting soaked and how stormy it got.
That was one of my first trips and I will never forget it.
After seeing "Mooch vs. Frog" I now know what happened.
That was me and my son that he jumped on (we didn't know what was going on).
I remember meeting you at Mendo and it would be good for me to get out more too.
Hope we can all see you soon.

Paulr
