 fivegonefishingIf you could camp with any famous person who would it be? and why?
 
 I d choose my Grandmother.  She died on square root day (9/9/81).  I felt I was just getting to know her since she lived in NY and I lived in Michigan during my childhood.  She was an artist and would have been famous by now.  I found a journal of hers at my dad s house about their times at a cabin in upstate NY.  She  told who was there, what they did, the state the World was in, etc.  I think she would have loved to camp with us.

 fivegonefishingAnna Nicole Smith had a show that was all about her camping trip - her son and her crew went with her - I don t watch the show regularly so I don t know all the names and she is such a freak - that on this particular night I found it hard to switch - but she actually did pretty good - built her own campfire (but got yelled at by the ranger for pulling off branches of trees).  She set her tent up ith a " port-a-potty"  of sorts and explained to her son that they were " roughing it" .  They ended up not staying more than one night - because on of her co-workers was whining about quitting smoking and needing a ciggerette because he forgot his patch - so they packed up and she was furioius - and very,very verbal about it!  I switched the  channel.......
 
 I would love to camp with James Taylor at my campfire ~ I also think he is a pretty cool guy.  Kind of cute even!!!!!

 fivegonefishingThis is a great thread... Makes you want to think for a moment...
 
 My choices would be the following:
 
 Carlos Santana - One of the Greatest Guitar Artists in the World..  Not that I am skilled enough to play with him, but to be able to talk and learn from the Greatest would be life fantasy.
 
 Albert Einstein - To spend a moment understanding what runs thru a Geniuses mind would be a exciting thing to do.  The Average Human uses 5% of the Capacity of the Brain, he was credited with using 10% or more.  Can you imagine if we ever learn to use the full capacity of the Human Mind??
 
 Jesus Christ - I be able to ask questions of the Author! What a fantasy and dream.   I pray and Honor Him daily.
 
 Ansel Adams - I am a budding photographer and would be thrilled to spend 60 minutes listening to the man that evolved the art to where it is now.
 
 Art Wolfe - Another Great photographer.  This man uses the camera to get the images that most of us would run from.  He is knowledgable and skilled in the Art of Wildlife photography.
 
 The Current President of the United States - To understand the pressures that this position carries with it.  To be able to ask questions without having the words to the answers written for them.  To generally give Him/Her the time to relax around the fire and be able to converse.  Obviously, once the meeting was over, I would have to disappear because of the information that He/She shared.
 
 And Finally....
 
 My family and Friends.  My Wife is my Life.  My Son is my Light.  I would like for my Mother and my Sisters to be there.  It would be noisey, but it would be a memory that I could take with me anywhere..
 
 Okay.. I m done.. sorry for the length..
