Bearly Live '07, July 27-29

We got louder later, you should have stuck around!

I don't know about what other folks' experience was like, but we sure had fun playing. And swimming. And eating. And drinking beer. And hanging out with VFTT folks and others. Thanks to SherpaK and Elle for once again hosting a great party!

I should have stuck around!....I drove to Lincoln Woods and bushwhacked Mt. Flume to Lincoln Brook Trail instead......jeeez.....did I ever wish I had found you guys instead

Won't miss it next year! I think I make my campground reservation tonight

Hey mats - the 12 pack of shipyard you left in my tent is in my fridge. Plan to bring it up next time I head up there to share with folks

Shame on everyone who bailed! The weather was perfect and the setting sublime.

Funky Freddy was/is a guitar God! His fevered Fri night acoustic jam on "Born to be Wild" as well as Saturday's electric lift off on "Take me to the River" were phenominal His rendition of Lennon's "Working Class hero" was superb as well. VFTT is lucky to have such a gifted artist/performer.

Twas also an entertaining treat to have kindred spirit Steve "Otter" Holmes drop by and sit in.

Good to see old friends on the mend and meet new faces as well.

Elle, if you are reading this... how do you put up with all of us - as well as your manic spouse? God bless you, I love you.

Over & out,

GRis

Many thanks SherpaK and Elle!! Hikin', swimmin', great company, and, of course, live music, all made for an excellent weekend

For sure, an awesome time that I was thrilled to NOT miss! Y'all are da' bomb!! Ya' gotta play more often!!!

 

[Seeker]

Ah, yep--I sure know how to not pick them! From Dave's pics, I clearly missed out on a fine gathering. However, I did have some great quality time with my sweetie and his boyz, so that is as good an excuse as any.

I love this trend though--and hope RS and I can make the next get-together!

how the heck did find our tentsite??

I just asked the nice old lady in the office where you camped. She gave me the tentsite nr (27) and a daypass (for my car) which expired at 11pm. I just must have missed you since I came to the campground at 8pm....it took some time before I found your site though. I saw the vftt sticker on the chevy pickup so I knew I couldn't be too far off. How do you like that North Face basecamp tent by the way?

How do you like that North Face basecamp tent by the way?

sucks we missed you - I think we missed each other by minutes - I got back from the clam place around 8, grabbed my cooler and then went over.

Love the tent - have used it 3 times now and it has seen some nice heavy downpours - dry as desert.

$$$ - but worth every penny.

thanks for the shipyard! will bring it to the whites on the 18th if you join us.

I'm denying everything and blaming Photoshop
