We've got too much unhappiness in the air, and it is DAMN hard to get it all from the internet. Let's get together this weekend, those of us who can, and clear the air. I'll buy the first coupla pitchers -- you want it Friday, Saturday, or Sunday night?
We all work well together, but sometimes it just seems like we wind up too far apart with just electrons between us, and misunderstanding building upon forgot-to-say working with a little bit of conspiracy (Al Gore mixed that in when he started the internet, right?). Let's clear the air -- we may not all be on the same page, but we're in the same chapter of the same book on 'wheeling, hell and gone from the Edward Abbey books that the Center for Biological Diversity reads.
Don't dwell on the differences -- remember what's the same: we all love the Rubicon mightily, or we wouldn't be getting so worked up about it in the first place... most have worked, volunteered, and spent for FOTR and the trail, so let's chill out, knock back a few, and figure this out.
Good job, Randii. I hope you get some responses and can make some progress. I'm out of the state and unable to attend anything for a while. Let me know how it goes.
thanks, Del
Dammit, I'd be there, but I'm in Idaho for Thanksgiving till sunday sometime..., sunday afternoon or evening is the only time this weekend that may work for me...
I am with Randy on this one. We need to get together over a couple of beers and let the pressure stabilize. We must be united or we are doomed to fail.
My Dad is coming up for the weekend but I could possibly make it on Sunday afternoon.
Damn, now more than ever I wish my rig was back together. at this rate by the time it's done, we'll be taking my crew cab dually, or my sister in law's 07 mustang GT-500 for a quick 15 minite jaunt from Loon lake to the springs... And if we want to slow down to see anything we'll have to make sure to keep in the right hand lane, cause the left lane'll be doing 60 MPH :flipoff: :flipoff:
Looks like Sunday dinner/evening is gonna do it. Just need to come up with a pub in the US-50 corridor. Mark and others, I understand that this weekend is primarily for family, but will sneak out of the house anyway. I'm already in the doghouse for nearly missing the anniversary last weekend. :laughing:
As for the trail becoming a paved highway, I don't see it every happening, but unless we own it, we lack absolute control. The County DOES own it, so we can demand a share in managing it, but this remains most effective through an organization like FOTR.
Let's get to gether and clear the air so that we can be more effective.
Ah, I feel the air clearing already, or should it be the dust settling.
