Biked in all of your gear and a raft?!!--now that's what I call a great expedition guys. Bear is very pleased that Lyx rescued the cute lady bugs...she is also of the same heart and mind. Meanwhile, I've got to find out what this "open access" stuff means...sounds like a devious plot! :-) love and blessings --NCBears 12:40, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Oh, it's a NCBears! :) How are you people? Haven't heard of you in a long time.

Open access is an initiative for the free, digital access to scientific (and other) literature. As opposed to having your papers published on pay-for-copy dead wood, and in pay-for-access scientific archives. -- relet 12:50, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the link. Bear and I are spending all of our spare time preparing for our holiday in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado and a burn in Georgia (a local arts festival modeled after Burning Man). We'll be back hashing this fall.--NCBears 23:33, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

Beautiful location, and I love the portable boat idea! One day I'd like to get a little more equipment for this hobby: at the moment I feel a little underprepared for some locations. --macronencer 09:34, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
