Wow, just saw the thread. Thanks all! Not typically a B-day party person, so I was certainly surprised by a full on cake, which followed the most traditional Tibetan dinner. And this was at our local guide's most modest home! Memorable for sure.

But right now, I'm just sitting in the car on the side of Hwy 101 waiting for the tow truck to come. Car's oil pan blew up or something. It's about 100 degrees in the car with all the windows down, still a little cooler than that hike we just did at Pinnacles - the Burning Pinnacles.

On our way out, I waited at the upper parking lot when Mr. Mud went to the restroom. Ranger Mak drove by and stopped next to me. I was a little embarrassed to be caught in that situation still carrying my climbing pack. I heard myself explaining, "see, it was Mr Mud's idea..." He knoded knowingly and replied, "that makes sense..."

Happy 4th, everyone!

Mr. Mud saw those too; that's why he had the concerned look on his face.

BTW, JC, were you among this group of tourists at West Lake, Hangzhou, China? We tried to look, but there were just too many of you.

 Ok, so I waited to let those of you who have known Mr. Mud much longer than I have to expound and elaborate on the reprehensible repression in his expression.

 Possibilities;

 1. He didn't get to go climbing, biking or bowling.

 2. Migraine with only OTC meds.

 3. Has stashed his rack at the base of the RNWFHD recently.

 4. Is grieving, moving from stage 5 into a solid stage 6.

    The 7 Stages of Grief include the following:

  Shock or Disbelief

  Denial

  Anger

  Bargaining

  Guilt

  Depression

  Acceptance and Hope

 5. Told a joke that no one else got.

 6.Everyone else got a joke but he didn't.

 7.?

Clink, you are a genius! All of the above!

But esp. 5 happened a lot in China... him telling his redneck, rough guy, jokes to my sister and brother in law.

Being a lama (secrete to Chinese government) himself, he is too noble for your jokes.  ;)
