Red River Gorge Trip Report

“Grease em up Bro!”

“Along the lines of Dances with Wolves, how about "Sleeps with Bagless in KY" for jmgardner?

Spam, next time you get them developed, have them do a CD, too. That's how I did mine.”

“It weren't squeaky wheels, Spam - it was all the rattlin'. The dang thing sounded like a wagon bouncing down a rutty road.

Ya know, tho -
I believe a good top of the line model handtruck with inflated tires would be the cat's meow in alot of situations.

Maybe some kind of cart, too. The Park Service provides two-wheeled carts at Cumberland Island for campers at Seacamp. They're fairly sizable, and feature bicycle tires - nice and quiet.”

“This reminds me of BS's sarcastic post about developing a golf cart w/ trailer for trail use.”

“those cumby isle carts are da bizzomb! i would use one.”

“Yea, I hate being the nerd in the crowd! I need a real trail name! :)”

“Everyone, the trip was great! No internet psychos - or so I may think... RRG is definitely a place to go back to explore A LOT more.

Thanks to everyone for the awesome tips and advice. Bagless in KY (or SpaceBlanket)and I tried to write everything down on our trip home. Too much to remember everything! We can't wait to see more pictures! :)

Later dudes,
Jackie”

“How about "Apples"? Those darn things looked good Sunday morning as I was heading out.They would definately go good with Spam and egg burittos!”

“Or maybe "PhotonGal" all those little Photon flashlighties you had could light up a Christmas tree! LOL!!!”

“We will just have to try those apples with a SPAM and egg burrito!

My old CD handle was jack-o-lantern... I could just go back to an old stand-by name.”

“That was suppose to be CB - not CD.”

“jmgardner is colorado dreamin'????

but they were both there!

i'm confused!!!!”

“It was nice to meet y'all, too, apples. Thanks for being so nice to my dog...”

“"JackieLantern" Thats IT!”

“Good one, spam.”

“firefly”

“How about plain ol' "Photon"?”

“Well Cow Patty, I really regret not finding that intial site now! lol

But, to be quite honest, if I had found you guys, I'd have missed out on the Photon light show! WOW, what a cool gadget! I have got to get me one of those!

My BIGGEST regret is that I didn't get to spend much time getting to know everyone. My fault. Everybody was really great. Once again, thanks for the warm welcome. There's nothing like hiking in the dark, coming across a cozy campfire and having your name called out like an old friend. Thanks everybody! Lookin' forward to the next time!”

“Zen
Wish you'd have got there sooner to. I ment to tell ya. Once during the night I thout a bear was outside the tarp but it turned out to be you snoring. LOL”

“even bears are scared of zen's snoring. i thought it was an earthquake!”

“LOL... I warned ya! Normally it's not too bad, but I drank a couple of beers and that makes it worse!

It may have sounded like snoring, but really it's an ancient Japanese buddhist 'anti-bear' mantra... and it works like a charm!”

“Zen, if it makes you feel any better, I practice that 'anti-bear' mantra too. :o)”

“Yeah but I'd rather watch Sunshine practice a "anti-bear" mantra. LOL

Zen Hiker
I'm glad you did warn us about the snoring or I'd have come out swinging a trekking pole. LOL”

“Noe Dude that ain't no way to treat your poles!”

“My Cherokee name, 'Iwannanap' translates into 'He who rumbles at night'...”

“I "wannanap" almost every afternoon...usually around 2 PM.”

“Here's some of my pics

http://members.home.net/markdmoore/redriver.htm”

“Great pictures Dude!”

“It took forever to download the pics on my cpu Dude but it was worth the wait! Are you sur you're not really Photoboy? LOL!”

“Great pics, walkindude. I've been waiting to see what the guy with the real camera was going to have! Your pictures did not disappoint!”

“I second Spam's remarks. Nice Pics DUDE. I'm hoping to get some scanning done over the weekend. My pics from the RRG trip are not a nice as I would like. It seems that one can never take a enough pictures.

Who do you think has the best place to set up a photo album page? Beside Phil's of course.”

“BR - Photopoint was easy.”

“Nice pictures, Mr. Dude!
(o:3”

“"the TT Legend"? is that higher than "benevolent ruler"?

do i get a crown?

a cookie?

a beer?”

“I'm glad you like em'. If ya'll want to use any of them on a Photo Point site, Be my guest.
That camera is kinda heavy but gets pretty good results so it's worth the weight.

Yeah Rad. That picture was screaming for a little something extra. So do you want the cookie, the crown, or the beer? LOL”

“Whisperin Bill said to tell you all that he thinks a good trail name for jm would be apple jack.he doesnt type on the computer yet so Im doing it for him.”

“Hey thats a good one but maybe we should at least acknowledge that she's a Gal and call her Apple Jackie!”

“you have all achieved celebrity status! a week ago i was hiking in the gorge with a friend who told a tale of meeting some people on the trail with a handtruck/cooler we were lol was it you? i didnt ask him when but how many could there be? i will ask him when i talk next .”

“gojo is the handtruck MASTAH!!!!

how do YOU get your beer out there, CB?”

“ROTFLMMFAO!!!!!!!!”

“even though cb stands for cold beer which i drink more than my fair share i never thought to use a hand truck usually when packing i go the wine route i am truly in awe!!!”

“i think i'm in love.”

“Mel uses llamas to transport her beer. Seems to work for her!”

“I cain't wait til my kids grow up, tha's who I'm gonna use as beer couriers!”

“Don't wait too long on that one, ape. Just long enough for them to be able to carry a pack full o' beer. You want them to get used to that load before they decide to start demanding a part of the load for payment!”

“LOL SARBoy! I her'dat! I'll keep 'at in mind, ty!”

“Ok Im going to try to give you all a link to my photopoint album.It is my first attemt so be patient with me .Here are our RRG Pics”
