Last Saturday, Sept. 14th, was great! I got to the Ranch at about 10am, hiked down to the Springs shortly after that, and found a bunch of good people hangin' out there. More and more arrived - but not too many. I'd say there were about 25-30 people who came and went during the day. Not bad. There weren't any 'rowdies' that I noticed - everyone was pretty mellow.
I met a couple of girls from Germany and hung out with them until about midnight after we hiked back to the Ranch. They were totally cool; Karen and Vanessa. Karen had these awsome blonde dreadlocks - the longest dreads I'd ever seen - and it didn't seem to stop her from talking with me for hours on end -- we had a great time sharing some wine and beer.
If next Saturday is anything like the last 2, then count me in! (The Saturday before, 2 Green Tortoise busses showed up at the Ranch - imagine 15-20 coeds in a hot tub(!) although I was only successful at getting 13 of them to get in at the same time with me ;-) Woo-Hoo!
So, Rich. Come on down! (In my best Monty Hall voice.)
