Lynne, so nice to see you here, i am not often here, and then i overdose i suppose....

i did get the usual insults for thinking differently, so i emailed one guy a list of the stuff on his rack,or in his pack that were my designs.... of course i had no reply.

fresh green lettuce with a variety of colors of tomatoes and red onions looks great, but the blu cheese chunks, and loops i forgot the dried cranberries, with the red onion somehow really hits it with rare to medium beef

I'm with Jstan. Except perhaps for the "it's all good" part. Loss of an old friend or loved one, for example. NOT! Outside of the political threads, there are many folks like yourself that make the taco sparkle Lynne, and a lot of them posted on the thread you reference. I thank all of them for their positive contributions.

Best to all....

Hi Lynnie!

Big hugs to a Mountain Soul Sister!

Just wish you weren't so far south, or I weren't so far north, or something like that.

I think of Cosmic Charlie:

"New ones comin' as the old ones go
Everything is moving here
But much too slowly
A little bit quicker
And we might have time
To say, how do you do
Before we're left behind..." The Dead

That's life...it's not for the squeamish.

Lynnie,

I forget we're only 2 hours away most of the winter. I need to make the campfire less virtual.

BTW...salad with tri-tip? Cut up a bunch of red potatoes, toss them in the old cast iron skillet with some finely chopped onion, and bit of garlic, some salt, pepper. Sauté in butter and olive oil until browned. Sprinkle on a bit of seasoned salt if you desire. Serve very hot and wash down with a good beer.
Friends don't let friend eat green things!

Peace,
Barbarian

The pics at the bottom of the first page are truly beautiful.

I looked at the one where the leader is just leaving the ground. At a first glance the picture looks pedestrian, not much happening. Just a guy, with a neat rack, starting a steep climb. Then I understood that it's at that moment--the instant when you unweight the ground--that everything comes into focus. All the psych, the mental training, and physical prep descends to the downbeat that marks the start of the journey.

The picture excites me, putting it all together and going, the moment of take off.

Hey ya neighbor! How are you Lynnie? I miss you!
I do have to admit that I tend to log on here to see what's up and then usually scan over the diatribe and don't want to get involved in any of it. But your post struck a chord... It's good to hear from you.
I haven't been doing any climbing lately due to a pretty bad knee injury back in July, but I'm recovering and starting to get stronger and I'm gettin the hankering to get out touch some stone here pretty soon.
I'll be off after Christmas. Maybe we can get together?

Hey Lynn I still lurk from time to time. E and I have just been super busy with work and life . Not much time for the internet these days. It is sad to think of the people we have lost .

Sorry we missed everyone at Facelift this year. Had both Pensylenvy and Jefe over recently. Seeing Luckypink next week. Always happy to see friends from ST if they are passing through Bishop if they want to shoot us a message.
