So recently I have been getting down on myself again. I have realized something over the last few months. I grew up with two guys that were brothers. The older brother had friends and we all became kind of a crew, brothers really. I don’t have that since I moved here. It has been really hard not having that group atmosphere to be around like I am used to but I am getting there.

Bart, I still am interested in taking you up on those offers once all your house stuff is handled. I might be able to get that canoe I showed you and that will help me to get out some more.

Justin, look forward to having a few brews with you in Moab. Are you camping in our group area?

The beer statement goes for those of you I will be seeing in Moab, I can’t wait.

I just re-read this thread and already feel better and wanted to thank you all again.

Thanks again

Clint

Clint, I'm with you homey. I grew up with two brothers as well, and I miss them more than anybody I left back east. They are actually in Florida, and I really have not spent regular time with them since 1998, which totally sucks.

Anyway, yeah, canoeing, camping, etc etc. Its gonna happen this summer. Its getting warmer, and I am almost done with the house BS (by the way, you free for about 3 hours on March 29th? - I gotta move the big stuff and could use an extra pair of hands! ).

I have been looking at the Auburn Recreation Area also (about an 1.5 hours west of Reno off I-80) as another possible camping spot I would like to peep. I am still 100% planning on the April trip down to the Mammoth/Mono area.

I also want to go shooting again soon, email me...

Damn, I am a little stressed about the move. I gotta go to bed.

You MAY be able to find some interested parties in the vicinity of the Red Rock Lodge...just a guess, but I truly believe that there may be a libation of choice, or two, hoisted on a nightly basis.

I know there are going to be a few wild nights in Moab this year!


No matter what else is going on in our little worlds, there is this AWESOME group of people to push back the gloom that can come from the daily grind. Add a few "adult" beverages to the mix, and you've got a REAL good time. Add a some great days having fun in the desert before the nights of partying, and you've got a way to push the gloom back for months. By the time you start feeling down again, it's time to start planning for next year (and the excitement starts all over)!

agreed! i just got back from a couple of bars with a local VXer, a drink after a meet is now bar hopping ever 1-2 weeks and sharing advice on women, cars, computers etc etc etc.. i haven't met a VXer yet i havent liked and met a couple who have become good friends online and around town

I definately agree there. My only two friends here in Reno are Bart and Beau. I have met some VXers I couldnt get to sign up on the the forum, but I still like them.

Yeah, I am so down to camp and drink with you guys. Beer bongs and shots anyone?! I just put in for my time off so I will be pulling into Moab the evening of May 11 and leaving for home on the 15.

As for getting down on one's self. I can relate to that lately - I'm not getting out enough anymore... I wonder why. But Clint! ...Spring time is a coming... blooms, BBQ's, brews, and bikinis! Just those thoughts make any guy feel better - I gots me da spring fever!! I have at least one trip planned for each of the next 5 months and that gives me something to look forward to (I'm leaving for Moab tonight). Plus here is a good trick... I claimed '99' for my taxes of the last 2 weeks and today is pay day (138 hours, over 1/3 are time-and-a-half and it's all tax free) and I'm getting my tax return next week. When I get back from Moab Monday I should have enough moolah to... well let's just say money CAN buy (temporary) happiness... and a lot of parts! Chin up man...

I know what you mean Clint, I was going to see if you guys wanted to go out for a light hike on Saturday up at Galena creek, but I heard the storm was going to be destroying our weekend. I have the same problem as you though, it's hard to hang out for me when my schedule changes drastically on a daily basis. I get the same "cabin fever" thing going on too. It's funny because I love to go out and do stuff, but Megan and I are like an old married couple, we tend to stay home and not do much.

This fall and winter were weird! There was a strange energy covering the planet(at least my part of it). I do massage and energy work, all my clients and just people I talked to were depressed,myself included. I think everybody is realizing what's around the corner. ps or we could be picking up vibes from a dying planet.

[Ascinder]

I kind of know what you mean Scott. I just rewatched A River Runs Through It and Legends of the Fall (both Montana movies-where I'm originally from) and the stark, pristine beauty and simplicty they showed (both set around the early 1900's) and the no nonsense, straightforward way of life struck chords in me. It feels like civilization is the one dying to me. I took a trip out Mcdermott, NV earlier in the week, and it's 100% wasteland the whole way there. I got homesick pretty bad and got the feeling you describe too, like stuff just isn't right in the world. It was very surreal and disturbing at the same time.
