I crashed a wedding reception at Dornan's. Does that count for anything?

The smoking pot in church thing is kind of cheating. My dad was the minister so we hung out in the church steeple a lot. good place to get away from the adults. I did sneak a one hitter during mass once just to say I did it....

I got married twice in the Tetons but never at Dornans. i did get lucky there several times and one fight and several inebriations come to mind.

not getting inebriated at Dornan's would be a feat...

Tad. you have to do the wall mart thing at least once with your Promaster. It is an interesting slice of Americana. The first time I talked Isa into it she fought it tooth and nail. When I woke up and looked out the window I see her coming across the lot wearing a new hat and pushing a cart with a brand new mini fridge in it...

Climbed a mountain that goes above tree line.
Weak! Pretty damn easy in high latitudes.
I don’t see nuthin about being shot at, flying upside down, eating out of a trash pile,
or spewing on SuperTopo.

16. 100+ 7 years in a row
the joy here is great and varied experience,
and pausing for a bit to be thankful and relish..
almost on the list, water skied with snow on the ground, my idea of "swimming" was to get from the boat, to the tow handle.

I was "homeless" in Ouray for a summer while working full time. Didn't own a car either. Getting laid that summer was almost ALWAYS outside. Great little meadows full of wild flowers around there. Great times.
Scored 22 I think. On the test.
