2. Bear hunting :sniper: , shrimping, camping.
3. Drinking Jim Beam :drink4: with glacier ice while eating fresh mussels steamed open and dipped in butter.
4. Sleeping! :oh:

Are you doing that on purpose, because that is just mean. If you need a navigator or pack mule I am your man. That sounds great. I spend a lot of time camping out in the San Juan Islands her in Washington, so in a smaller scale I now what you are talking about. Now as for that Jimmy Bean and Glacier ice that sounds real nice.
1) Eastern Washington
2) early scouting for Mule Deer.
3)Hiking, glassing and some good old Winthrop Brewery IPA around a nice camp fire.

Dave, when are you going to be in Cedar Bay ? Depending on the date I'll be around the corner up in Unakwik Inlet a bit. I know, I know...bring your own J Beam. Will you at least share the ice ?
Happy Hunting,
John

I will defintely be there on the 26th till.......only God knows. I will also be over there in the first part of June, 3rd I believe.

I guess that I can grab an extra iceberg on the way over and share the ice. I will check my rope supply.

I'm bringing the shripm pots and poles. We caught some really big yellow eyes over there last year at the beginning of Unakwik. BIG suckers!

The call sign is Mariah! As the grand-daughter is named and as the wind is named too. :grin:

Mothers day weekend is typically our first trip of the year, and we usually head down to Hope for a 3 day weekend. Somehow our kids both made it in their schools talent show tonight, so this weekend is out. Worse yet is a performance next Fri and the Fri after for some of their other activities!

I think we will be heading down to Clam gulch next weekend for our first camping trip, and first time digging clams. After that, I'd like to spend the memorial day weekend on some lakes in the Kenai National wildlife refuge enjoying the view, swatting mosquitos and trying to pull up a rainbow or two.

We just might be getting a zodiac from a buddy, so if'n that happens, I'd like to camp on an island in PWS launching from Whittier.

We're also planning to visit Kodiak for the first time this year, take the ferry over for a week, and maybe camp a few nights, though a friend has offered to put us up for the week.

Too many places to go, and to few days to seem them!
