watch Grateful dead's "the closing of winterland"
So what will you regular posters do?

Home page.
Home page.
Sounds like a lot of work navigating all the way to the home page.

You'll have to take that up with gator. Maybe he can move it to the groups for you.

I have a firm plan of listening to Native Spirit on IHeart - work on a few other blogs that I cannot mention. Enjoy a sip of Bacardi Lymon and Coke or Soda Stream's premium Blackberry Soda & Stoli and contemplate the future... as I marinade Top Round Marbled Loin for a Carolina Pit & apple cider mop Jerky for my friends.

A "sip" - yeah right.
Gonna head to Hog Camp Gap for the night. Get up at 5 and try to view the comet. Wish my new quilt was here. My leaky old bag will have to do.
I'm doing Soda Stream diet root beer and Stoli, myself.

Thanks Karl, hadn't heard of this.

I'll party on. It may seem with all my posts here that I can't live without WB. It's the furthest thing from the truth though. I post on about 10 different hiking blogs, have a career project in the works(including several proposals to write up), taking Spanish lessons(for the third time), my SCUBA class is starting up shortly, my music downloads and hiking mp3 player needs some fresh updates, I'm recovering about 3000 hiking pics frozen on a computer, am preparing for a thru of the Grand Enchantment Tr in spring and all the CDT in New Mexico, and I have a 90 m hike in the Pine Barrens to get ready for in 2 days. Plus the GF is begging for attention which she deserves. I can do without WB if I need to. Duty calls. see ya.

I'm almost done reading The Hobbit for the third time, quite possibly my favorite book. I imagine that I will use the shutdown time to read the last 30 or so pages.
Then I move on to re-read the lord of the rings.

There seem to be an unusually high amount of air traffic tonight (though I have no facts to back this up Dogwood :) ) and I saw a couple yellowey type things like Carbo described, but couldn't swear they weren't airplanes.

Look into Mountain Laurel Designs synthetic quilts. Very light. Proven in the field,(see Skurka). Very reasonably priced. Mine is on its way, ordered 2 weeks ago. Per aficion...:)
