i dont sell rice burners.
if you want to buy a truck,buy american for heavens sake(its the 4th of july!!!!). toyota doesnt do trucks, they do cars.and by the way there is no such thing as an extended cab 2dr. ext cabs have suicide rear doors.
aside from which hes got about 2 months plus left of walking. talk to me about a truck when hes done.

[Rasty]

Grow a beard to attract trail groupies!
i tried that. all the groupies were guys

Yuck..........

I think they are calling that model "access cab" these days.

[hikerboy57]

I think they are calling that model "access cab" these days.
you have a 2 dr, an extended cab(suicide doors) and a crew cab which has 4 full doors.

[Water Rat]

you have a 2 dr, an extended cab(suicide doors) and a crew cab which has 4 full doors.

I sit corrected! Thanks! They must have done away with the extended cabs. I used to have a '93 extended cab. It was awesome to have an extra seat, without the extra doors.

[atmilkman]

Where do you suppose coach is by now?

[Gray Blazer]

extra info for cafe readers.
i will be catching a ride to culvers gap tomorrow.
im hikes out of dwg.
i will decide tomorrow if i get on the trail when i get there or if i find somewhere nearby to watch 4th july stuff and get on trail again on friday.


I don't know much about the area you are in. I've had good luck in the past finding the highest peak around and then enjoying many views of fireworks in many directions. Happy 4th of July from an American friend.

[Gray Blazer]

summer rain.

in just one night

my razor has rusted over.

I did not think you owned a razor.

[rocketsocks]

Where do you suppose coach is by now?Somewhere with a big ole smile on he face.:D

[Gray Blazer]

I mis my F-150...great truck! great engine!

You would like my 86 F-150 extended cab. Great bug out vehicle. 302 is a good engine.

[Water Rat]

The fireworks have already started in my neck of the woods... Nice of the weather to clear off a bit (around here) for the 4th!

Happy 4th to all!

[rocketsocks]

You would like my 86 F-150 extended cab. Great bug out vehicle. 302 is a good engine.heck ya on the bug out aspect...mine was a 93' no extension..just a workin man's truck.

[Driver8]

In other words not really a feasible option.

More feasible from the Success Trail, which is nearer Berlin, but it would still be a long walk to town. I don't know how busy the road is. I'd imagine the closer it is to Berlin or to Main Rt. 26, the busier it is. Others from that area would have a better idea. There are several other side trails coming off the Mahoosuc Trail/A.T. to Success Pond Road. I gather they're pretty rugged.

[illabelle]

I think illabelle's name should reflect her number crunching ability. ILB is nice but kinda hard to remember. I was thinking something like "the count" or "abacus." JMHO of course.


isuggest we eliminate the first and last 3 letters and simply call her "abe"

sorry guys, the problem with those ideas is that somebody who doesn't know that illabelle = the count = abacus = abe won't be able to follow the conversation. ILB or IBL or just about anything that starts with I will work. IBELLE, IBEL, IBL, ILB, ILLB, ILL89WETNVLKJFF

well, maybe not that last one!

[illabelle]

It's all about time management! :)

I've worked about 90 hours in the last week and still prioritized spending at least one hour a day POHOing. I'll sleep when I'm dead. :D

exactly! POHOing is a serious career or something

[rocketsocks]

what's funny is several years ago i had some checks with my name written in a script font, a little like this: Illabelle
the "Ill" looked enough like a capital M that I started getting mail for Mabelle!

Hey ILB, just read the story about Indy. Pretty good.

He's surely long since gotten to Hiker's Welcome in Glencliff. Up bright and early for a shuttle to F Notch for a hike back to his car. Hope the weather's good for him.

If I'm lucky, I might catch up with him Saturday for the Moosilauke traverse, but with the amount of work that has piled up on my desk, it's not looking too likely.

[illabelle]

Hey ILB, just read the story about Indy. Pretty good.

there was a thread a while back about your favorite AT bird. i told my story on that thread. had a few comments, but not many, supportive, but one person did warn me that we aren't supposed to harass "wildlife." i pointed out that she's not wild, and he agreed.

i sent her a PM a day or two after The Incident. just said hi, how are you. she said she's fine. we hadn't ever traded PMs before, so she wouldn't have had a reason to spill her guts or anything.

bird thread was very tame, just a poll and some comments

life after was a lot of fun. i enjoyed it thoroughly except for the nastiness. i caught a glimpse of several posts just before alligator deleted them. but it was pretty clear to me that the fuss was a carryover from somewhere else - probably the Cafe :eek: - so i never felt like my thread was a problem.

Fall in VT is awesome! Might be headed there in Sept.

we were thinking the first week of october. need to get in a short warm-up hike (in VA) before we go. is that still a good time for fall colors, bugs gone, water sources ok?

On a separate note, I commend everyone for having enough restraint to not post any sophmoric responses on the "What should I dip in my peanut butter for Lunch?" thread...

i've never understood why people get so riled up about politics. seriously, why can't people just have rational discussions?
i see, the armed drunk thread. figures. that one was sure to draw out the strong opinions.

[Mountain Mike]

Fall colors usually peak first few weeks of Oct. Water in some places depend on the summer rain. Last year in July some summit areas were dry or just a trickle. Columbus day is considered normal peak weekend so plan accordingly if you head into a town. Higher rates if you can even find a room!

we'll only be there for a week. not sure yet about starting point, probably NOBO from N Adams. getting a room in town won't be imperative - but it would be nice! just getting a resupply on groceries will be enough. how does the terrain compare to TN/NC? and is it rocky like PA?

That last sentence I wrote may have been a bit of a stretch.

I'm only an adult in the sense that I have a job and occassionally get called for Jury Duty.
Otherwise my time is filled with hiking, farting around on the internet, listening to indie rock and fantasizing about having a pet dragon... Not much has changed in the last 17 years in that regard.

[Wise Old Owl]

Anymore "Honeydoo's" I won't have energy to hike.

[Mountain Mike]

Other than initial climb out of N Adams & decent to Rt 9 & climb out terrain not that bad & not that rocky. Great views from Glastenbury Shelter. Stratton Pond another great shelter/camping spot. Using Public Transportation easy & cheap up to Rt 4 for a trip or returning to your car. Manchester Center is easy hitch with good re-supply.

i've been thinking about moosilauke lately. planning a section in VT this fall, but i'm pretty scared of NH and ME. i admire you guys that have conquered.

I've scarely conquered, but have been happy to scale some of the big, beautiful Whites. They're awesome mountains - overused word, but it squarely applies here. Had I more money and time, I'd be up there a lot more.

As for VT, Mountain Mike's on target. I'd say think of September 30 as peak for Waterbury area (between Mansfield and Camel's Hump) and October 7 for Killington to Stratton. I did Stratton on 10/9/10 and found the winds had just knocked most leaves off the birch and beech at 2800-3300, above which was dominated by spruce and fir. Vermont's beautiful and quite a bit easier, what I've seen of it, than the Whites, though I hear from others here that it gets more rugged north of Killington/Rt. 4.

As for Moosilauke, it is one grand mountain. I love it dearly.

[Sarcasm the elf]

I read it once over a decade ago, it was somewhat lost on me, however it is still on my shelf in the "to be eventually read again" pile.

On the bright side, we now have Monty python. I think that puts us solidly ahead of the ancient Greeks.

Jacko is the name my friends have used for 40 years.
I have usually found myself amongst friends when hiking.

freezer is full of okra from last year's harvest

apples, oranges, cantaloupe

that would be a good way to start the day

[illabelle]

i'll finish this page and then go fix myself a fruity meal

[illabelle]

instead of loading up on grease

some mashed taters

i tolerate spiders, moths, ants, wasps, carpenter bees, and most other bugs

yellow jackets have a right to live too,

but not there! not where i gotta walk at least twice a day!

so then she has to beg this poor clerk (a guy) to come in the room with her and search her buttocks for a stinger! which they never found, of course.

true story, i know the woman, and i believe every word of it. she said she'd never been stung by a wasp before.

END OF STORY
even funnier was listening to her tell it, being so incredulous that a wasp would actually sting her and it would hurt so much! and her ignorance about stingers, and her screaming, and her really believing that somehow the clerk/owner was responsible for her "injury." clueless!!!

I've always used cornmeal, mainly cuz i didn't know better. somebody told me flour works better, so that's what i'm doing this year.

the okra will be completely dressed!

it's good to have a favorite number
how did "4" become special?

I am a rare person that has a memory from every year of my life. I do not recall exactly when it became an obsession. I believe it was sealed at a very early age at a fair with my father. My mother and father were divorced. I remember the raw emotion he was tortured by on that day. I remember getting 2 items. One was a printout that stated that my favorite color was green and that my favorite number was 4. I also got an aluminum slug that had my name on it and address with a 4 leaf cover on the back. I still have the slug. Although it is worn smooth, I can see it as brand new in my mind's eye.

Now mind you, I already had 4 as a favorite number and green as a favorite color. Call me a nut, but I believe God loves children and that those 2 moments were ordered for me by God. I could explain why I like the number 4, but felt this would be a better facet to relay.

[BirdBrain]

Sigmoid Fraud would have great fun with me. I have memories back to being a few weeks old. It is the type of memory at that age he would drool over. I think he drooled a lot being insane.

[BirdBrain]

Hmm... I wonder.

[BirdBrain]

and to make it 4

[BirdBrain]

Okay... it is off to meet the day.

Sometime if I am in the mood I will relay my 1st memory that is like a movie. I have flashes of images and the feelings from as early as a few weeks. My 1st complete memory is at about 10 months old. It is a funny story. Maybe later.
