2010 Beacon Rock Peregrine Monitoring Journal
billcoe replied to JosephH's topic in Columbia River Gorge
Title page to your link Ivan: "Home care costs pinch seniors Jessica Hill / AP Many people may be pushed into costly nursing homes if states slash programs. " .. Who's going to step up and tell Jim this? ______________________________________________________________ BTW, the lower part of the Cape Horn trail was closed due to those nesting Peregrines down there this year for the first time. So if you're into hiking that one: be apprised of that. -
first ascent [TR] FA-Black Spider-Center Drip-Mt Hood 3/6/201
billcoe replied to wayne's topic in Ice Climbing Forum
Ditto on the congrats Wayne, sweet stuff. Nice to see an obsession actually not get someone arrested for once... and it looks like the freezing level is actually dropping so it's gonna be there more than 15 min! -

:kisss: OK, I apologize for snapping. (And for screwing up JH's thread too.) Good nights sleep and your post looks entirely different to me in the am. another :kisss: , even if it's probably wrong. ..... I'll let your wife know that a chainsaw would be great Christmas gift. You missed your calling, should be working for the road crew. -

Dude, you say that you're buying? I can get behind this idea, be aware that pulling out a warm Pasbt tall boy is considered an insult in many cultures. Ivan, you reading this you cheap screw? Real beer shouldn't taste like pee. LOL! The cold wet winter trick I learned from JH: after any cold day anywhere in the gorge, was to curl up right next to the fire with a Guinness at Skamania Lodge. Right next to it there on the hearth. For the non-alcoholics, they have free coffee and hot chocolate too (please don't abuse this). Someday he's gonna wander in there and I'll be sitting there next to the firescreen taking up his favorite spot... -

You can buy a couple of old versions of "Castle Rock". One location is from the Oregon Historical society, and the other is Oregon State University archives. Unfortunately, they only go up to 11 x 17. -

FUCK YOU KEVIN ASSHOLE -
Wellll, that's a crab louse, and it's OK to say pubic hair, you don't have to keep calling it vagatation Gspot'r. So they are dripping off of ya. Just get some rid buddy and you'll be fine. ps- keep bringing on the climbing, and make sure you bring on the pictures with it too. Except for those like Layton's, no pics is fine there. There is a site called "Rate my poo", where some great pics can be found of that if it's your thing though.

Ujahn came back from Costa Rica couple weeks ago and I haven't seen him since. He's building a surfboard right now in his garage though. Guess they had a great time on the water. -
Well, God was there, probably the Christian one, but unsure from the articial anyway.... http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/03/05/AR2010030501659_pf.html "The Associated Press Friday, March 5, 2010; 11:07 AM WASHINGTON -- One of the two police officers shot by a gunman outside the Pentagon says he is doing fine and credits God for shielding him."

IN THE SPIRIT OF BIPARTISANSHIP: HERE'S ANOTHER ONE. 'Democratic Rep. Eric Massa will resign from Congress on Monday, only days after reports first surfaced that the freshman New York lawmaker was under investigation by the House ethics committee for allegedly sexually harassing a male staffer.' http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0310/34001.html ANYONE LEFT IN THE CAPITOL THERE?

It was bolted AFTER it had been ascended with gear was what I understood. Wayne Wallace, I heard, had climbed that long time before he moved out of the area. Regardless, it's neither here nor there. Ozone already has enough bolts for most folks and it's a short drive if one wants to clip things:-) -

Whoa...that's a ....well...masterpiece is an overused word, but certainly well spoken, thoughtful and well written tome. To add to JH's words, if the birds are nesting: S. Side of Beacon will be closed. You will not change that no matter how much you either wail or become involved. Sorry, but dems the facts jacks. We were going to look at working on getting the West Side and the S side hiking trial open this year, but I confess to you all, I don't have the energy or the mindset to dog it. The process got started if anyone wants to pick up that ball..... Meantime, there are plenty of old routes on the N side just gathering moss and withering away you folks can jump on....brush off a few leaves here and there.....:-) -
Well I hadn't, but thanks for the lesson! http://online.logcabin.org/ It's not too early to post the dudes pic on Fairweathers dirty democrat thread.

Don't know if that's karma. Hope you get your stuff back Nate. Do you have any pictures? Was your stuff marked with tape or paint? What color(s)? Markings on them or shoes? (like I wrote my name, with Left and Right on each shoe, the pair I bought off Andrew, I wrote "ANDREWS SHOES!" on with black felt tip markers -it makes Andrew happy to see them used) I've taken to marking my colors of blue and yellow with paint, AND writing my name on the slings of all cams for instance. Then I've taken to doing pics of gear so that when I do have to argue with the insurance guy I have evidence. That sucks, lot of gear for sure - Good luck.

no shit... its been a little under 18 hrs since justin presented the "smoking gun." never woulda figured that it would take that long to get another entry... Come on, it could be that JH finally realized that his wife, home and work is more important than Beacon, monitoring, or giving any kind of a crap about this any more dudes. Long after we're all dead and gone, the rock will still be there. Of course, hopefully I go last....:-) -
I'm not sure what this pic is, but this seemed like the best place to put it. Look at the deer on the couch??!! Here's what it says: "People in Schuylkill County (where I grew up) have a warped sense of humor. It must be something in the coal-infused water. This is the pull off at SR 61 and Adamsdale Road. A deer was hit there. The couch was dumped there previously. Day two: the deer was on the couch. Day three: the end table and lamp showed up. Day four: the TV and TV stand showed up. The Trooper had to call PENN DOT because of all the people stopping to take pictures. PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE SIGN. The cardboard caption in front of the deer on the couch reads, “Sorry Hunters. Obama ruined healthcare. We can’t afford to have injured hunters on our conscience, so I’m staying home! Sorry, the Deer.”"
