    Default Good morning

    Room with a view!

    Got some pretty great conditions right now. About 5' of powder with a nice base. I'll be freighting a few tons of building materials, a couple of 6x6 wheelers, a big diesel 5k generator, solar panels... and chances are good for hauling beer, too.

    I've got 2 weeks to get it done before I fly with the wifey to Seattle... I'm going to be busy, but this is a fun kind of busy.

    What you should do is get on an airplane. I could use an extra rider to escort me up and down the river a couple hundred times.

    Oh, and help loading all that stuff onto the freight sled!

    I'll pick you up at midnight from Anch Intl

    Part of me really wishes I could, and part of me is glad I can't! That's some seriously heavy lifting going on, and it'll happen on both ends of the trips too. Then again, I wish I could do my best and help just to repay for a once in a lifetime vacation/experience! But unfortunately no way I could afford to do both without losing a wife in the process. (I know, I thought about it...)

    If I can make it in the summer, and there is work left to be done, I'm in and more than happy to do what I can!!

    Yeah... shameful, isn't it?

    I drank my coffee black for decades, and then a woman got me a vanilla latte one day and I liked it so much that I put French vanilla creamer in my coffee now.

    That Denali coffee with the foo-foo creamer is really really good! Not very macho but it's too good to pass up.

    Give me your wife's number and I'll get shit straightened out for you.

    Oh shit, I know you too well by now!! You'll set her straight alright. And she'll be going "Ummmmhmmmm.... Uhhhhh hmmmmmm" and "Really? Tell me some more about it...." or if lucky maybe even "I'll think about it".... but most likely she would giggle/laugh....

    And then Jim gets further laughed at afterwards by her. And then Jim gets the crap beat out of him for giving out her number and setting her up like that!
