And don't worry, there were NO bears in JT, just these little prairie dogs and kangaroo rats that I desperately wanted to pet.

-- figures this comes up the day after I registered. When I don't register for rides I get shut out and have to open a beggars thread. When I do register I just donate to the cause and then go on another ride. And NO I don't want any cheese to go with my WHINE.
