The breakfast was the best food I'd had all weekend. Much appreciated. The purpose of the trip was to tryout a few new camping ideas and get the hammock setup a bit quicker. Under 5 minutes now. Although I'm thinking the hammock nights are numbered. It's not as warm as a tent no matter what you do underneath. What a spot though. And there are no camping restrictions. I must admit that one thing I've never thought of taking on a solo overnighter is music, but I found that with the sun going down at about 6:00pm it leaves about 5 hours of filling in time. A book's keeps me amused for about an hour and I have a bucket full of sidesplitting jokes to tell myself. But after that I get a bit bored. So I bought a pair of these on eBay for $20. Bloody brilliant. SD card for the music as well as radio. The lithium battery is charged via a USB to the computer and gives about 5 hours depending. Strongly recommend it if you are thinking along the same lines. And the quality is surprisingly good for Chinese. ( I spose for every 5 trillion products you've got to get one right ) |

I must be getting old. I remember when everyone snickered at Japanese cars and audio equipment and cameras. |

And the Japanese economy is now down the toilet. We've seen it all before Chris. Another case of history repeating itself. It's OK rusty, I won't lick 'em. |

Lake Sonoma is about 2 hours or so north of San Francisco,USA. So my guess is Clint is probably a Santa Rosa, CA USA or thereabouts... |

I know this shot is ineligible for the competition, but it has such stunning lighting I just had to share it. Not fake! |

I've been working on video from Kelly's 4th Channel Crossing, posting later today. Here's a pic from it I call "Kelly 'flying' into a cloud". That's the TI's front seat! |

Great shot Bob. We put a lot of faith in those 2 little bolts on the the crossbar not pulling out of the hull. I know it's not but in this shot it looks like the weakest possible link to me. |
