Chez WaySorry to hear about your Dad. I hope the good progress continues!

Welcome home. How did the Avalanche/Kiwi combo. tow? Did you go over the " Grapevine" ? If so, how did it handle?

Chez WaySteve, Sandi, KiwiFamily, Y-Guy, Teachermom, or whoever
Glad to see you on board.

You will be in our prayers.

Chez WayThanks for all your thoughts and prayers. We really appreciate them.

Actually Jeff, we haven t towed the Kiwi with the Avalanche yet. He towed the Niagra with it and it handled like a dream. We hoteled it (yeah, remember those buildings with all the rooms???) at Disney! Weather was beautiful and camping would have been great!

We had a " life altering--wake up and smell the roses--reality setting in" experience yesterday

[/size].[/b]

We went into Borders to get a Neil Diamond CD for our trip to Chabot.

Scanned through, then dug through the POP/ROCK section. " He s not under D s. Not under N s. And not in with the CDs for people who don t have LABELS either." So I resorted to getting on the computer and YES they have him. G-whiz found him too in the EASY LISTENING section. He was right there: with Bing Crosby, John Denver, Bo Diddley.

How can that be?

HOT AUGUST NIGHT---in the EASY LISTENING section.

He was one of the hot singers when I was in high school, through college and beyond. It s likely that I lost my v*******y with one of his LPs playing.

" Say it ain t so, Joe"

I need to take some Geratol so I can calm down.

Chez WayYou know what Scott, when I got my Neil Diamond CD during the holidays when we all first got into this Neil Diamond Zen, I went to a Best Buy and kept looking under Rock and he couln t be found. I also found him under Easy Listening.

Go figure.

SurfcalRay,

Why didn t you warn me?

I was devastated all day yesterday, and it was only today that I could talk about it.

Next thing you know, The B**thole Surfers will be under easy listening.

BTW--if there is a worse name for a rock group, I would like to know what it is. This creates a whole new image of what " in the tube" , " wiping out" or " hanging ten" means. None a pretty image.

Chez WayOk, let s see if this thing works...

Howdy all, been outta state since Christmas, might have passed Nick on the road to Tucson as we were waaaaaay down at the south-east corner of Arizona (2500 miles round trip) to visit the in-laws. Just got home tonight, and this forum s slower than heck: I keep getting error messages, or it takes 2 minutes to load a page. Oh well, Steve will have everything ship-shape in no time. On to individual comments...

First and foremost: Kiwi/Y-guy- I sincerely hope all works out as best as can for your father. Having had a couple close calls with my own parents, I know what you are going through. You and your family are in our hearts and prayers.

g-whiz: Welcome to you as an individual member! (Does this mean we get to perform an operation on gsmx2 and turn him into a " gsmx1/2"

[

] )

Nightowl- I hope you are able to camp with us some day. I would really love to meet you (as would the rest of us NNCer s, I m sure).

Neal Diamond: He s only " easy listening" cuz you can tell what words he s singing.[

] Some of his best songs were not " easy music" by any means.

Drive-through Arizona rant: What s with all those folks in Quartzite??? 200,000 RV s gathered in one spot, and not a single pop-up!!!

New NNC members: Welcome to each and every one of you!

Pop-up Times: Happy New year!!!

But don t you just love the 75MPH speed limits. Myself and several others were doing about 85 and and highway patrol passed us up! Arizona still has the rough old west mentality.

Surfcal

Sacto Camper
CWB
Red Barchetta
Sammyslave
Champ521
SCCS

Hey G and G (GSMx2 and G-WHIZ) can you make it?
I paid the deposit and will have to pay the balance in February.
The cost is $45 for the 2 nights. Those going can send me a check.
Email me at hjhoegh@juno.com to get my mailing address.

I have not assigned sites yet, since I am waiting to see who is all going.
Also, I had hoped to drive down there yesterday and check out the place. Maybe this weekend.

Anyone else want to come???

Surfcal · Jan 06, 2003, 12:55 PM

Chez WayHey Holly:

We re just 4 short of a MegaRally status. I think you re headed that way.

Chez WayHey Nick:

I m just killing time here at work and I ve had some observations. I looked at a couple of entries in the Hybrid section and with the couple of entries you ve made there, the thread died.

I look at the Cachuma Lake thread where you ve last entered and that too died.

What the hell is going on with your entries pal?

As for me, idle minds is the devil s playground.
