Sunny, we did camp on the site. That was the worst of it. Elbow to elbow, not like what we're all used to for a camping experience. But for 3 days it was worth it for the music. Pagosa Springs could be our next home. We really liked the town.

SkiTres, The new pencil did great. Got a few new email addresses and didn't take any pix that were "over enhanced" but Mike still has the original #2 Ticonderoga.

We did wave to another Hawk/Ram 2500 guy just as we were leaving Durango Monday and gave the WW address to a couple with a Hawk on a Tundra at the festival but no other FWCs or ATCs the entire trip....weird, when I don't have the camper with me I see them all over the place.

My daughter and I and several Crested Butte folks are heading down to Pagosa Springs for the Four Corners Folk Festival in September....same venue different festival. It's an awesome weekend of music. The kids love it. We will be camping on site as well. You're right Chnlilse, it is a tight fit, but that is part of the experience. Plus you can wander through the campsites and just drop in on the artists jamming throughout the night. I can't wait.

Sunman,

Potrero is starting to green up nicely. You know, whenever I am there I always see so many bear tracks and bear poops but I still have not ever seen any bear there. One time, though, I saw a deer kick a stone several times over a 100 foot distance to knock it into the pool. Then it went back up the hill chose another stone and kicked it all the way into the water as well.

In a bit over a week, Anne and I are headed up to Canada's NWT. We'll arrive Inuvik about 300 miles north of the arctic circle. The final 500 miles are dirt road where I always see grizzlies, caribou and a couple of times wolves. It is my favorite dirt road anywhere. (We would have waited 'till next year but just in case Anne's health doesn't hang in there, we thought we'd better go now).

Talk to Jay, maybe Spring 2011, you'd like to join us for a Baja Whales trip.

What a great trip you have planned. Understand the urgency and I hope you both enjoy yourselves. Please post some pics when you return. I'm in for 2011.
