You hang out @ 9000 ft elevation, because that is the altitude where deer turn into elk.

If someone calls and says “Do you have a second to talk about elk hunting?” and the call doesn’t last an hour.

If by April cabin fever has not set in bad. Western Oregon rain, rain, rain

BTW: I have rearranged my camping gear for the third time this off season and keep sorting through it to see what I can eliminate more stuff. I am waiting for the sun to shine again so I can set up my new wall tent to hose it down and close the pores.

That's what happens when you run out of blinker fluid.

My theory: Drivers in small towns figure everyone already knows where each other is going. So "turn-whats" only turn on for parades, funerals, and as Christmas lights.

Where we lived on the high desert of eastern Oregon you could see for miles in every direction. Stop signs were often just a suggestion.

Before my wife met me After a few days of wind and subzero temps she was so amazed at how a no wind day at noon and zero outside how cheerful everyone was in the "nice" weather, and their jacket unzipped.
