It'll be a weekend thing for us, Dave. No problem there, we'll connect.

It'll rouse up the natives that's for sure. Terri and I are thinking of going up to Bull Creek next week to see if we can find the Hyperion tree. Not too far from you. We alway's stop in Garberville for breakfast at the Eel River Cafe, about 6am. Why not join us and bring Kristi and the kids.

Or Dream.

There ya go. I just might get to see it happen after all. "The Great Northwest Flip Line Marathon". Bring it on, Burnam
