All the good Canadians lost in action? Can't be happening.
Does that mean we are left with Pete and Anita? OyVey.
Good thing beer is rationed.
I feel the same way when Russia beat Canada.

Hey, is there going to be any live music happening at Facelift? Will anyone be bringing a piano? I can play all the jazz standards, if anyone wants to sing. Also, can anyone bring me a trombone??

They're dropping like flies.
Speaking of dropping flies.. we are actively recruiting an Upper Pines campground host for Yosemite Facelift 2016. MrE and I will be on the road elsewhere and unavailable.
Cat herding skills required :)
PM me or catch me at the check in trailer in Upper Pines.

hey there say, ken... just sent this to you...
use it the best WAY you can, for the facelift...
raffle??
door prize??
gift to hardest trouble, that a worker runs into,
while cleaning facelift stuff??
since dean will be greatly missed and would have loved the facelift group,
i wanted his SPIRIT to be there in some way for others to have
that memory of him...
here it is:
so you can think about it, ahead of time...
it is from timid's photo...
*sorry did not have time for anything more indepth, but i have somewhere to go this weekend, and did not have more time, :)

road trip!
plan on stopping at some places you've wanted too check out... visit with friends...
and roll on into The Valley for the whacky magic of the Facelift...
you are always welcome! (if I have any say in it), and like everything else... things don't last forever.
But whatever you decide, make sure you're having some fun

Hey, there neebee, that's something Ken ought to put up as a silent auction item. How many can say they have a painting signed by n--way? Many, thanks to your generosity. But how many will be able to say their art purchase was tax-deductible, should Ken follow that idea through. One generous guy.
I know it won't be me, but I would put in a silent bid for $XX.00. :0)
Sorry to hear you need to pursue the almighty dollar, Big Mike. You'll be fondly missed.Sorry you won't make it down to the lift, Anders. Healthy vibes to you from all of us.

I really want to see all of you!
And we want to SEE YOU!
I am driving in from Moab, probably about the same distance as you. Ferretlegger is still in the Bay Area so I will be making the road trip to Yose alone. I find it peaceful and enjoyable. I am very cautious about paying attention to my body and not getting fatigued since I have no one to share driving with. Short stretch breaks make a world of difference.
Your route south is a beautiful one...get in that car and DO IT

Sandra....pm'ed you. Maybe you could fly into SLC and we could rendezvous there. I could lend you some camping gear so you wouldn't have to lug it on a flight.

Does anybody want to climb Snake Dike? Susan?
Ohhhh Mooose....will give it serious consideration. Having some hip and knee problems that aren't fully resolved....but....i hope I can and if I can't I know some others that are probably very willing. A lovely German lady that will be with us. She's a physicist. You guys could talk science! She's climbed all over Europe.
I'll track you down when I get there....but I won't shoot you!

Hey thanks everyone for the encouragement!!!!! :) :) :) I've been trying to make this decision for a good couple weeks now. Although it would be AMAZING to see you all I think it's not meant to be this year :(
Not to get too personal but I'm still pretty emotionally shaken ... Being there might make me more so as I've only ever been there with Mike. Making new memories would be ideal but I'm not sure I have the mental strength for it just yet. Plus my finances would not be able to absorb a Jeep break down ...
I have some of my long-time best friends coming to vancouver next weekend so I think that may be a more healing experience for me. I also might have the opportunity to join some squamish friends for a smith rock adventure after next weekend.
Would've been awesome to get out on some rock with some of you ...
You all have fun out there ... And behave yourselves ;)
Much love,
Sandra
