Eph- do you recall our Porkies 1985 trip? It started with our hike in a torrential downpour. When we finally got our first site set up we watched two bears destroy 95% of our food. I remember running into the river to try and salvage it. A day later I fell and broke my wrist. Luckily, we had Abel De LaRossa there to make me a makeshift splint out of twigs and a bandanna with his trusty machette . Then the bear ripped through Eric Stevens' tent. Either he was wearing cologne or holding back candy on us. I don't know which was worse. Did you feel bad when you made fun of me when I couldn't tie my shoes and it turned out I had to spend the rest of the summer in a cast? Finally, Abel took a spill and had the grill he was carrying swing over his pack and hit him in the face. Luckily, we had Lance Silverman there telling the Panama med student to apply direct pressure.
I seem to recall Ron Sklare, Farbs, me, you, Andy Rittenbery and Lance on that trip,. Did I miss anyoune? There was nothing better than the Ironwood McDonald's at the end. Despite all those mishaps and virtually starving for 5 days it was one of the greatest trips we took.
Your postings are outstanding. Keep them up! J.B.
