Yeah there is always going to be someone in more need, but that doesn't mean you don't need help Mike. You are in a wheelchair and there are few people on here I'd rather help. I appreciate what you contribute here and look forward to your future trips.

I'm in your playground and enjoying myself. Snows not the greatest, but good enough and hopefully it's gunna dump the next couple days. Dude you coulda waited a few weeks before hurting yourself, would have liked boarding with you;-)Next time.

Big Mike, you and Blitzo are both in need thru no fault of your own. I'm there for both of you....trying to figure out how to maximize. I could contribute some money or guiding time for a donor might be more lucrative, just need to figure out how to market it. Two days at Indian Creek or the Black Canyon with me doing the cooking......you will eat well.

But you'll pay for it in sweat and tears by climbing and trying to keep up with him.

Donini, you could buy a painting. hint hint nudge nudge.

Donini It is actually a magnificent offer of you. And I hope the Tacoids see it for the tremendous opportunity it is. I was only phunnin.

About the art not the sweat and tears.
They don't call you Dameanie because you are sluggish on the approach.

I mean I would do it for the chance to climb with you but I'd need a two day head start.
