: Semantics...I like Bill Mason's differentiating between adventure and

Hi Shawn,

Good quotes are where you find them. I did not say my trips are uneventful, just that that is my goal. I have dealt with enough windy, rainy, and snowy trips, in addition to being two or three days overdue, unscheduled bivies, low on food, runway rash, broken, lost, stolen equipment, and wild critters to have more than my share of campfire stories.
Some shrug it off as S*** Happens, but my friend Peter Holton says, there is always an A** involved.

Your precense will be missed at R2K3, especially in the currents of Point Wilson Saturday.

All the best,
Reg
