We have been remiss in our blog duties! Please excuse our absence over the last couple days as things have been pretty hectic. In fact, we have much to report: a Christian evangelical revival featuring Milner on guitar (seriously); The wheel coming off our ride necessitating a skidded stop on the brake drum; Outstanding surfing progress; and last but certainly not least, the arrival of much needed reinforcements bringing us up to full fighting strength! All will be covered in due time! For now, though, just a quick note about Bob's B-day (Feb. 6), which we celebrated on the beach at a surfside reggae bar. Bob is truly the global icon of our time. I was reminded of this again last night as we chilled at the reggae bar, groovin to Marley videos. Lotsa locals enjoying the vibe along with the requisite gringo contingent of smelly Euros and vain Americans. On our beach, people from many nations and backgrounds gathered to groove, one more time, to a man long dead in body but clearly still vital in spirit. Last night, in South America, Africa, Europe, and even Asia, people gathered to pay their respects. Anywhere there is sand, surf and mellow times- or conversely - war, oppression and strife, his voice can be found! Here's to you Mr. Marley!

  1. Yo. Have you all become drug mules yet? No doubt the cartels have recognized the hardiness of the Wyoming clan. Don't sell yourselves out-the economy is bad, but supply and demand is alive and well. Gringos can usually charge more because we are mono-lingual.

    The powder fell when you left, just as you envisioned. Many good days and lots of choking and armpit deep snow. The backcountry is still fucked and more people have died in the valley due to avalanche.

    The climbing gym still has that V3 and it is waiting to be crushed by you upon your arrival. Also, there are still beautiful women there that want to meet you-they just don't know it yet!

    I've kept up reading your blog, but just figured out how to join. Hopefully this gets to you, as every time I've tried to write you I get booted off.

    Travel safe, don't leave too many light brown nicos that look like you.

    Alex
