Geno likes hunting in moccasins, probably would have enjoyed that part of the trip.

Living wet like they did in Oregon might not have been so much fun.

The bridge to the right of the elevator crosses Almota Creek, where the group camped one evening. Of course, camp might be underwater now, as the Snake is not in the same condition as that river in Kenny's picture

You were in my backyard and never called? I am so disappointed.

Apologies Blue,

I was up there 8 months a year for work, usually rather busy, some pay periods between May and August I'd get 120 hr OT on top of my 80 regular in 2 weeks. Mid Mar-May and Aug-Mid Nov sometimes I was doing 12 hr on, 12 off for 10-12 days in a 2 week period too. My wife was living in Cali or over in the Potlandia area and if I had more than a few days off I go see her and our dogs. Most days off were used to go to Clarkston-Lewiston or Pullman-Moscow to resupply and maybe during the season hunt some birds or deer. (and a lot of that was after a 12 hr night shift)

Only managed to get together with Field Grade for a couple of hours, missed meeting up with a few others over in that neighborhood, Lonny, wageslave, you. Oh, I did meet one guy at a gun show, that guy that sang in some Gospel quartet or such, but that was just a hello.


We stay at Boyer Park at least once a month during the summer.. Great quite park.
