hi Doc,
when I left Anchorage it was 52 and drizzle.. arrived Sacto and was blasted with 112 temps !!! needless to say, the first few days were quite a sweaty experience... the whitewater rafting clinic in Coloma was great, had a fun week on the south fork of the American River.... the crowds were AMAZING, have never seen sooo much skin on a river (not that I am complaining....)
I was going to go to Gerlach after the clinic to look at the empty playa but was sidetracked by old friends and never made it... guess I'll see it in a few weeks in all it's glory....
sounds like you had a great time at the Marathon, the last laugh as well as a new, fast time...
we'll have some tales to swap over cold ones at BDCWB !!
think big and dare to fail
