What are you doing Labor Day weekend?
Pete will be working on the house while I mix batches of Sangrita. No lemonaid for this hard-working man. We are staying home in Mammoth for the
weekend to enjoy our own town for a change.
Last weekend we backpacked a total of 19.5 miles Friday to Sunday, to go to one of the most beautiful places on earth: Thousand Island Lake.
What are you up to this weekend, my fellow nomad?

Thousand Island Lake is one of the magnificent high country lakes! One of my favorites in your area for a shorter day hike is Valentine---don't know
for sure why, but I just love it there.
Labor Day we will be here in Bahia Asuncion enjoying it NOT being a holiday here---too many people in Imperial Beach.
But some time in the near future we will be back in the Eastern Sierras----love Baja, but need the mountains real bad---need to hug a tree and having
traveled accross the US, we always feel back at home in the Eastern Sierras.

We will be boating (partying) on the San Joaquin Delta.
What we see depends mainly on what we look for.

Her comes a DK hijack, Sharks style
A great lake! Been there few times. There are some awesome Golden trout half breeds in there> One of my all time favorite places! Plus a great
climb up from the trailhead. Were there many folks there. When we went in the 70's there was nobody there.
Isn't that the same trail that keeps on going up to Thunder & Lightning Lake? Always a glacier along it's banks. Fantastic country, you are
lucky to have that at your back.
Oh! Funny you ask and what a coincidence.
Labor Day in 06' "John" Labor Day in 08' "Julio"
(well close enough)
You know we will spend our real first day off in 3 months celebrating only with our family in 3 months. We do it up with all the trimmings. I will
prepare one of my fabulous specialty stuffed range turkey.
Wild rice, smashed tatters, whole cranberries, corn on the cob,wild mushroom stuffing or ?? plus gravy, biscuits and fruit.
I'm of course always in the kitchen mode regardless of the date or holiday. No
biggie anymore, I just have a routine that's simple and fun and good eating.
We celebrate Labor Day figuretively. Please sweetie, pass the potatoes. Does potato have an "E"?
Chin up I say, man the decks, grab yer shovels mate!! Life (and Labor Days) only come once a year, get the most of one !!
I refuse to be beat down by a bunch of refuters. I choose my place, my life and my risks. It's what my bag holds. If we decide to clean and rebuild
why should I be made to feel guilty? It's our choice, our decision, our lives.
We feel blessed regardless of the hurtles and obstacles in life. Aferall, "LIfes' a beach" Maybe that's something one might not share in principal
because of the potential or even real loss of money, momentos and physical possessions.
Sharing and giving is something I have done all my life. That to me means also of giving of yourself more than just signing off a check for the
cause.
While many folks may share this labor borne relationship the emphasis of interest and conversation lies in the realm of money and economics.
To me they are separate entities. While money may make a project feasible only the labor of man will make it work. So what are the armchair givers
and wizards, they wield big bold swords of words but when the mustard needs to be cut they have no spoon.
To be a laborer is to understand and enjoy self-fullfilled feats and tasks. To utilize your physical prowess and march towards completion and reward
of those accomplishments.
To those people willimg to roll up their sleeves....my gratitude.
To those who choose the path of life with blinders on. You make our job hard.
Remember those days in your lives which carved out your unending interests, chances are that those days were some of your most laborious.
Happy Labor Day......... and I mean it!!!
Gawd I luv that photo......memories flyfishing and hopping from boulder to boulder..... wow!

Cute stud Paulina...
Oh, nice photo of Dern, too!
Hope everyone has a great holiday weekend... My new wife and I are hoping to get onto Shell Island for some peaceful days of just sand and the Sea of
Cortez... We like it when it is bathtub warm in the water all day and all night!
The only 'iffy' is that it is a new moon tomorrow with very high tides ... and I don't call it an 'island' for no reason!
If not Shell Island, then maybe Gonzaga Bay... You know to see it one more time before the approaching pavement ruins it forever!

Paulina,
Now that my wife has seen photos of you and your studs, she insists on getting your phone number for a chat.
I think she is planning on dumping me for a "Dern-like" god and another horse !!
