All roads leading to Bishop this weekend

I keep telling Matty we need another trailer.

Doreen, whom all of us had a crush on in Hong Kong, will be here this weekend. It will be good to see her again, and if she has a good enough time with us rednecks, she'll drag her lovely easy going funny Patrick out on their next trip West. They are our glamorous friends who live in Manhattan. I've missed geeking out about film and pop music with them.

Michelle, sans motorbike, will be here, bearing samosas from the big city. Bless. She and Davey will do some climbing. Michelle is getting ready to make her move up to Bishop for a serious climbing summer. I am hoping that Michelle and Doreen find that they are somewhat kindred spirits. They are aficionados of slightly twisted documentaries and feature films.

Davey and Naomi will be enjoying the few quiet months before Sproglette Hansen makes her (that's my guess, a girl) appearance. I'm so excited for them. They will be great parents, and Wyatt will have a "cousin!"

Oh, and Rodney in Wellington saw the Phoenix Foundation play the Newtown Festival the other day and reported that Luke Buda mentioned that the band just finished recording a song with a Bishop reference in it. Holy hell. Wow and all that. The sun shines bright on my high desert, alright. (Unless, of course, the song goes, "There's a town in the desert/and it's such a mighty s*&^hole....")

Probably more like:

keep the lid on,
But sometimes the best
treasures are hidden" :)

Whatever the TPF lyrical content, it is appropriate and deserved!
