Mouse - great work! I felt bad about failing to be there, but after those pics I REALLY feel sad - but totally determined to make it next time.
Thanks for the phone call, you guys.
Especially sorry to miss TM. See you next year, Herbert?
Hey, great to have so many well-seasoned contemporaries in attendance, but we need more young blood at these things, if only to help us up the stairs.
Well done again, Steve!

I tried this picture in a brighter mode, but it lost some of the "mystery". Why do I think of people like Jessie James and Wyatt Earp when I see these guys....?

The Mouse That Roared...And Clicked was hard at work this year!
Thanks for shooting everyone painlessly Brian.
What a freakin' blast that was!
I had a conversation last night with a couple of old friends in a trimaran on the Sacramento River delta about directed dreaming and the notion of asking yourself whether you are in a dream state while awake.
I had to laugh because I was doing that very thing at several points during the Festival this year as I would look around and see Haan, Bates, Wunsch, Robbins, Frost, Erickson, Jones, Denny, Beck, Fitchen, Robinson, Reynolds and the rest of the Dream Team!
Heaven on Earth if you are a historian.

Awesome photos of the event. I wish I could have been there to see so many stars of my climbing era and also to say Hi to the few I had the pleasure to climb with.

If I don't make any other climbing event next year, it has to be this one!
Great job everyone, but especially Steve for his vision in making this happen.

Wonderful photos of what is clearly a great event. Too bad that it is on the "wrong" side of the continent for me. I do want to add my words of sorrow and concern to see RR in a wheelchair. I hope that it is as a result of something temporary, though I fear otherwise.

I met Susan on ST. She (and Ferretlegger) are now a part of my own circle of friends as well as many others. The Campfire Grows. :D
I know I've mentioned this several times before here on the Forum, but Royal showed up out of the blue to speak at and help with John Bachar's "Peoples Memorial" in Camp 4. I'll never, ever forget Royal Robbins and the speech he gave, the respect he showed for JB.
It was great seeing these two on the stage together. Loved what they both had to say. Texture of photo gives a feel for the uncertainty of the times they spoke of.

I am glad that both of these guys were willing to come and represent the Stonemaster crew with Largo unable to join us.
The Only Blasphemy is 200% Largo and an uberclassic. Glad our boy didn't crater on that one! LOL
Hearing about the FA of the Bachar-Yerian in detail for the first time was a real treat! Dave brought John's spirit into the room with some honest and heartfelt emotion and longing for his essence.
Dean introduced me to Charles Cole III BITD and we had some fun times on the Captain pushing each other onward and upward.

Two quotes I thought memorable and wrote down.....
Roger Breedlove about Jim Bridwell, "Creating a community that Everyone could survive in."
And
Steve Grossman asking Royal Robbins, "What was it like, Royal, to be a movie star?" and Royals response, (at which I still giggle :) "It struck me, Steve, as odd and consequently I wasn't asked back."
Steve Grossman, is the weekend going to be put on a DVD and sold? I'd love several copies. Cheers, Lynne
