Nice Wayno...I like a good Aglianico!
Not "drunk" but a Stone IPA at dinner, some shared pitchers of Sierra Celebration at the bar and a nightcap White Russian = not bothered by my tweaked knee from getting pounded from the top of the lip of a 7' wave straight to the bottom. Thought I lost teeth at the time...checked myself and paddled back out for more =) Rode a few more before (and endured a few hold downs) before realizing the knee was sore.

Dang, Ana and Bluering just thinking of you both today and how much I have missed you....and little John. Come visit anytime. Love you Guys so much. The two of you early on so helped me get a life, a new life. Bluey and my first Thanksgiving at Josh and Ana and our adventures to The Nose Reunion and camping at my first Facelift.
Hugs to you both. lynnie

The wine would be a bit much if I didn't have some food. Before I left work, I sauteed up some black trumpet mushrooms with hot Italian sausage and arugula and tossed it with some papardelle and a little marinara and butter. Arf.

Gads, it's only Thursday night. And being a lightweight, I'm halfway there on half a bottle of Appelation Lodi - the Seven Deadly Zins. Don't laugh, it's great stuff, though slightly overpriced these days, even I [the consummate cheapskate] will spring for a bottle every now and then.
I'm saving the Amador County barbera, which I brought back from Heavenly last week, til Saturday night.
Driving my folks to Fort Lauderdale next week, where I shall be the third man in their cabin on the Holland America cruise ship. My net cost for two weeks of cruising? $139 US! Bwah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!!! And your POS Merrican Dollar is worth rather less than the Mighty Canadian Loonie!
What say you to that, Anders? And you other Merricans?

Lynnie,
It starts in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. Stops at their leased little island in the Bahamas, Half Moon Cay. On to Curacao [never been] and Aruba [been there] then back to Florida. Turn around, return to Turks and Caicos [new for me] San Juan [been there, but cool] and St. Maarten [was just there in the fall, know all the shopping places, it's the Cheapest Booze in the World!] then back to Ft. Lauderdale via Bahamas Cay again.
Now on these cruise ships, they don't let you bring on your own booze, cuz they want you to buy their expensive over-priced stuff. They X-ray your bags at security on the way in, and they are getting wise to tequila in Gatorade bottles.
However the security guys on the cruise lines are usually from Nepal. So you start out with the folded hands Nameste! and work from there:
"Oh, you've been to Nepal?"
"No, but I'd love to go. I'm a climber. I'd love to climb Kangchenjunga. It's the third highest in the world, you know."
"Really, that mountain is right above my home town!"
"What a surprise, you must be from Kathmandu."
"How'd you ever guess?"
"Hey, um, I hope it's OK. I like to sample beers from the various ports. I hope you don't mind if I sneak a six-pack in from time to time...."
"No problem!"
Nameste!

I have not been contributing to this great thread for a couple weeks.
However I am celebrating tonight!
I have forced myself to write down yet another
story of my outdoor misadventures for ST.
"BIG Water on the Bruneau."
Guess I have to------ once again do that toast:
Here's To Cheating Death!

Uh Oh!
The thread appearence yesterday made me think it was Friday night.
Guess I'll have to celebrate tonight: by starting my annual ritual of going out and knocking off 50 pullups -------to warm up for climbing with Donini.
Damn!
Last year I had until August to get all 50 done.
