Yes, it's the usual. Needing money for gas to get back to the east. Halfway there mileswise, but not enough gas money for the last leg.

So!

If you can use a new chalkbag, people do say that mine are very good. You can see them at http://www.climbaddictdesigns.com/shop-chalkbags.html

I will also post below pictures of ones not yet completed. If you want one of those, just order anything from the website, and put the Letter that is on the image on a note to seller, or send me an email, or post it here, and I will confirm. Noe: Unfinished ones are all Small Dipper Size. Note also, that the Small Dipper is plenty roomy. I have had several people ask for Big Dppers to be ade, and then they go with the Small after all.

ALSO: I make ponytail holders from vintage buttons, which ca be seen at http://www.etsy.com/shop/TalismanStudios

They are a nice way to keep your hair out of the rap device and work for other occasions too. The buttons are collectible pieces of artistry from the early industrial age(1880 - 1950, and a few up to 1970), when button designers o=used modern machinery to take their craft to a higher level. Then of course we went to Helena Handbasket, and now everything is cheap. Here are a few pieces from the collection:

There are many more - so please pop over and take a look. If you do social media, I would appreciate any post you make to your frineds as I really do need to make some sales, or I will be left here in Grand Island Nebraska for a while. It is a nice town, but I want to get back to the Gunks for first day of trailwork on May 3rd, and also to get back to work there.


AND!

I also do beaded accessories. My style is sort of a romantic casual. The pieces tend to get a lot of compliments when people see the line, and so I hope you will like them too. They can make nice gifts for sisters, moms, daughters, teachers, babysitters, helpful friends and neighbors, guys.

Here are a few pieces from the line, which can be found at http://www.etsy.com/shop/TalismanToo

Ooookaayyyy...

That is bizarre.

Those images are not in my Photobucket account - at all.

I am going to leave them for the humor of it all, as I try to fix, but am pretty damned annoyed.

Okay! So Photobucket seems to have a mind of it's own and I had to eliminate half the code the have on the "click to share" box to get images right. I have no idea whose pictures those are in the top post, but it is sort of ironic that they are fish, when Sushifest was last weekend!

Let's try the hair accessories at http://www.etsy.com/shop/TalismanStudios:

Do you have sprinklers on your kayak?

Checking in and thank you Nuts Again and John for orders. Will get the out in tomorrow's mail and send you emails with Tracking Numbers.

Nita - Yes, you can do that. Could you send me a note with the link to the item you like, and give me your mailing address? You can contact through the Etsy Conversation system(but you may need to have an account with Etsy to use that) or through Supertopo PM, or if you have my Happiegrrrl email, can do that too.

Hi Labrat - Sorry for the inconvenience.

I tried to test the order system but because it is my own PayPal account, t disallows me to go further than the sign in page. Sorry!

If you'd like - send me a note with the names of the chalkbags you would like, and also email/shipping address(needed to create invoice). I can then send you an invoice for the amount. If all looks good, pay the invoice and we're good to go.

I know people have bought more than one at a time in the past, but not sure what navigation they used, if the PayPal page doesn't have a "keep shopping" option. And in those cases, the shipping cost is added for each bag. I can send a refund (via PayPal)for excess shipping, if you do go that route.



Edit: And thanks everyone for the comments and fishing pictures!

Glad to see the gunks tradition of sewing and selling chalkbags is alive and well. Did the same in the early '80's after learning from some other gunkies.

The question is, do chalkbags produced in the gunks still have a "summit doob" pouch???

Thank you, Mister E!

No pot pockets - I'm not that good at sewing.


Upate on shipping....I didn't realize that small town Iowa post offices are closed on Saturday. By the time I hit Des Moines, I was also too late for the ones with Saturday hours. So - everything will go out on Monday.

Thanks all for the help. It really has been...helpful!

Around Joliet, Illinois, trying to figure how to gt through Chicago and further while avoiding the hwy 80 tolls.

Lucas is good. Had a bit of an epic last night that involved a cop, who immediately recognized Lucas was a MaltiPoo, by the way he was bouncing up and down, barking his head off while simultaneously wagging his tail....

Long story short - I've never been so glad to run out of gas in my life!(Had strong headwinds for many miles, but didn't realize they would reduce gas mileage so badly - figured I still had 50 miles to go before empty. Stopped at a park and the van wouldn't run afterward.... I thought I had killed it of course and was shocked beyond belief when we put in a gallon of gas and it started immediately).

Hey Terry I will be ordering some earrings for Bonnie once I sober up just a bit. I thought it was Friday!!! Good luck getting back East. To every one else who doesn't know if that is possible Terry is a fantastic person. Even if you don't need another chalk bag order one up and pass it on to a friend. It will be very powerful karma! Karma is very important to a rock climber. I am a very, very firm believer in good karma. Bill

Thank you for the good reference, Losbill!

I am about 120 miles from home now, stopped at Starbucks to do a last set of emails/internet/work before getting back.

Looks like I'll make it - phew! This one was a bit stressful, and when it came to the home stretch, I drove a lot of miles these last few days(compared to my usual 300 tops - hahah). But I know my boss has been wanting me back at the job, and also trailwork starts Sunday. Plus, there is a Gunks Climbers Coalition par Sunday. This gives me time to get back and two days to transfer van contents to cabin.

Studly - Sorry the Supertopo message didn't go through, but I DID get yours and responded. Now it is going direct instead of via ST, so you should receive it. If not - post up, and I will copy the contents to this thread.

Edit: So THAT'S why you bought that bag, John! Well, everyone does need a beverage holder. Or a kitten holder. Or even a chalk holder.
