Whats up w you , Cat? 

Hi CAT!  How's your summer?

Hi CAT!  How's your summer?

My summer is going well...no complaints at all. I'm stunned that summer is almost over...but I can say I'm ready to get rid of the heat and humidity. It's been terrible hair weather...hahaha!

Nice to see you CAT, how's your daughter doing?

Not much, CAT.

Been hot, dry, and most folks avoided damage from the fires in California. Has a few Zoners quite concerned for a while. There's a new travelogue thread that's nice.

Some folks are so bored they're searching the archives and bumping year-old useless threads thinking it's a nice idea to see people bicker some more.

So, not much new. Some folks having trouble adjusting to a gentler Zone with less traffic.

Hope your summer's been good. I just got back from the Targhee Bluegrass fest in Wyoming. Nice fest, beautiful drive with a hot soak thrown in.

Slickrock, it's great to have a voice of reason around, like you

here00 - she is doing FABULOUS! Over three years clean from opiates. I have my daughter back again! She went to Red Rocks with my friends and I last week for JRAD. She fell in love with Colorado. Next month I am taking her out to CA for a week so she can see where she was born. We are starting in Santa Cruz then working our way up to Oregon then back down to Napa, and ending in Fairfield where she was born. Thanks for asking about her!

slickrock sounds like an amazing adventure you had there! Wyoming is SO beautiful! I love that entire area of the country. I absolultey love living 10 miles from the ocean, but I have to say I am most comfortable in the mountains away from the bazillions of people I am around where I live now.

 

 

Hardly Strictly is first weekend in October. 

We fly in the 29th and out the night of the 4th...we will miss it by a weekend :(

Welcome back, CAT!

 

Thanks for sharing the great news about your personal triumphs.  Enjoy your visit to our neck of the woods and sharing adventures with the kiddo. 

Great news about your daughter, Cat. :-)

I'm so happy for you and your daughter, CAT. Thanks for the update

Great News, Cat!

Very Nice to see you here !!

Great news about the West trip.

Northern California to OR (and back again) is absolutely Gorgeous in the Autumn.

 

CAT sighting!  Cool.

Glad to see you here and to learn of your good news.

>Over three years clean from opiates. I have my daughter back again! 

 

fantastic news. road trip sounds like fun. all the best. 

Hi CAT! That is really great news about your daughter's freedom! So good for both of you. Have a wonderful adventure touring the west. Love.

CAT, SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO good to hear about you and your daughter. Sounds like the trip out west will be a great bonding experience. 

We'll look forward to your travelogue like Johnny D and Kai.

Here's a view from under my cover at Targhee.

Can't post more than one pic per post for some reason.

Mama moose and two calves in southern Idaho. And camp. Pretty hot. 90 degrees in the shade at 8000 feet.

Wow, two pics worked.

Thanks for all of the positive words everyone! All I can say at this point is life is amazingly good!Very cool pics slickrock! I I went to Boise for panic a couple of years back. The drive from Montana was just stunning. I truly love that entire region of the country. So much natural beauty!

Here's a couple from our Colorado trip last week. El Dorado Canyon and Pike Peak. I can never ever drive up a mountain like that again. My daughter had a full blown panic attack when we were driving up. We go to about 13,500 feet, just shy of the 14,110 summit. I was white knuckling the wheel,she was freaking...I had to turn around and let my friend drive down. It' was absolutely stunning up there, but no guard rails and the no margin for error rattles you. At least it did me.

Hey, now!

Sounds like you’re still ALL glitter ;)

I miss those Phil cap runs.  Hope you got to see Scott for JRAD at the redrocks.

Peace and love on your journey.

And glad to hear about your daughter!

 

 

Awesome photos, CAT and Slickrock!!!

(I only wish my son was half as nervous around dangerous heights as your kiddo is, CAT)

Fantastic news about your daughter, Cat!  Welcome back and have a great road trip... this foggy August (Faugust) weather we're experiencing here in Santa Cruz should be done by then and Indian summer will hopefully be in full effect (best time of year here).

Real good news about you and your daughter's journey, CAT!  

I recall my Dad driving me up Pike's Peak when I was a teen, and thinking it was a little hazardous.  Glad you made it back in one piece.  Makes for a good bonding experience.  I'll remind my pop about this at his 91st birthday party next month.

Nice to hear from you.

My brother in law voted for Trump & I haven't seen him since XMAS.

He has found a rock & hides beneath it.

Nice picture of the canyon up there ^

Hi CAT!   Just think of the yearly motorcycle race up Pike's Peak, yes they sometimes fall off the edge!

Great news about your daughter!

It ain't the real thing but it is close enough to pretend.......I look at that everyday.

Great news about your daughter, it's a tough journey for everyone, tell her everyday that you love her.

Don't be a stranger around these woods we need all the ladies we can get around here.

A motorcycle race up Pikes Peak? Are you kidding me? That is INSANE! I'd be better off hiking a mountain than driving up it.
