packing up and will be driving out in a few hours. Will definitely miss the Pins and the associated characters. Met a lot of people over the years and had a lot of fun. Thank you all for the memories. I plan to be back on occasion. Take care everyone and the best to you and yours.

The words that matter:
"I plan to be back on occasion."
Don't forget or karma will get you >:(
-
We'll keep an eye out for ya. :skep:
You will definitely be missed :-* :'( :-[
Planning to name some routes in your honor. :yesnod:
I'm sure we'll hear from you soon but until then - here's to Mud in your eye :ihih:
-
You are part and therefore cannot ever. Safe travelling.
-
It won't be the same.
You have definitely left a mark on Pinnacles (or was it an oil stain on the parking lot from one of your various Troopers).

I will start adding bolts to your old routes (pink hangers). the only way for you to know will be for you to come and see.
Safe travels!

Looks like Beyond Destiny/Triple X but the caption MudScared doesn't work for me.
I've never seen that dude scared!
There's badass and Bradass, but Mr Mud is in a league of his own. :yesnod: :ihih: :lol:
I'd swear there is a bolt hanger unclipped by his left foot too :o

May I have your parking space?

You may actually have earned it ;)

Dennis already bequeathed it to Kat a couple years ago - as long as he wasn't there :ihih: :biggrin: :prrr:
-
That's my spot!

The early bird gets the parking. I roll @ 5a.m.

It's uncivilized and uncouth to start that early.

I do have to say it is a hard spot to fill. About a month ago we were getting a late start and ran into the guy that cleans the bathrooms. He looks at mr. Mud and starts with the "hey is that your car?" Mud hesitant like goes " uh yeah, why?" The guy says " well, i see that car here in the same spot every weekend and well, I have always wanted to meet you." Turned out to be a cool dude who's family have been ranchers in the area for a few generations.
Another day we had the mudmobile double parked transferring gear to the trunk of another vehicle. Ranger rolls up and goes "hey is that your car?" Again it was like uh-oh here it comes.......Ranger says "You're Mr.Mud the guy that runs that mud n crud site! It's great to meet you!"
The last few times we visited the park I think we forgot to put the park permit in the window. Now, I am saying I THINK we did.....I could be mistaken.....but we never got a citation. That's a testament to the power of mud!

Great this is all going to his head.

You always have a home here. I'll keep the lawn mower for you. ;D

Great ,this is all going to his head.
Oh, I think you misunderstood me. I was talking about the car.
F4, deal but only if you are skilled at cursing a lot.

Ah SH#&, Mr Mud never curses ::)

^mud elevates derogatory language aimed at inanimate objects (rocks) to an art form.

Thanks all for the good words. The pins will definitely be missed, you all as well I suppose. I have been working on my cursing the last few years, as in trying not to since it was brought to my attention that I do it a bit. I think my efforts have not gone all that well. But, I figure if you are going to do something you may as well be semi decent at it.
The power of Mud is real, it must be embraced. Hugged even, especially if the hugger is cute.
-
...I have been working on my cursing the last few years...
Um "working on" as in learning to do it more? Or trying to do it less? (I sure don't recall you swearing all that much - but then all that kind of stuff is relative, and I've been known to drop an "F-Bomb" myself once a month or so...).
-
So I guess I don't get a hug. You could just close your eyes.
-
Clink, that is just scary
-
It's okay clink, I didn't get a hug or a kiss.

You say that now, but then there are those cold bivouacs. Is this why we only climbed short routes?
XOXO
::)

short routes in the sun

How's the new place? Any climbing plans?

Holy Smokes!
It hit 110 at 3:30 today on the Pinns gauge and the NWS keeps pushing the smoke further into the forecast.
They pushed it all the way into Monday now.
The fire is still burning out of control.
Size has tripled since last Sunday.
100 crews on site.
15% contained. It was 5% at 10,000 acres, 10% at 20,000 and now 15% at 30,000.
I feel sorry for all those people out there trying to fight it. :madman:
Kat said someone at work told her there is a prediction that it might last the whole month of August.
Sounds like it will just have to burn itself out.
-
sad to hear about the fires. With it being so dry there is so much tinder.
No place yet. Might have a place to move into on Monday or Tuesday. Right now to avoid traffic I leave at 4:30 and get back at 9 or so. Feeling a little ragged today.

Can't you just sleep in your car at work? Or pitch a tent?
Home is over rated.

Late to post here but wishing you all the best on the relocation. You are the second person I know moving out of Calif this month.

Skyline! Thanks, I will be around the Bay Area from time to time. Hopefully we can meet up and ride. At the moment I am super out of shape. Good to see Paul is back. That guy is a beast.
