  1. Sweet Karin!!!!

    I met a woman named Karin today. She has her own store here called Karin's Store. Creative.

    Give the West Coast Giver Girls some lovin for me as well, they are missed.

    ...and Gator, whats a poll party and why wasn't i invited_ were you taking a poll as to how many people could be at one of my parties? 7? 8?

    Met some heady german hippies this weekend and did some camping up in the mountains where i'm stayin. big lake, big cliffs to jump off, LOVIN IT! They actually have a car with a Canadian Flag painted on the hood (vis a vis how i met them) that they bought from some canadian guy about 2 years ago....anyone?

    Karin, if you can make it in time i would go to the High Sierra Fest....Very awesome and i think Simone and Marie are going too.

    Give James a big wet one for me,

    Schwampy.

  2. ya, i'll probably have to Pais. It might be just as hard to have someone explain the friggin scanner to me here. pretty hostile office crowd in this place. i only have this access because i'm on the midngiht shift. the only dude in the whole place that speaks english is on that shift....so i am too....its shit.

  3. bb, can't send pics. forgot the software in Canada for my camera and my camera is also dead and its hard as fuk to find an adapter over here. I do have some doozies from Mt. Pilatus in Swityerland though. met some heady Hookah fans on the top of the mountain and we hung out for the day. twas coo.

    Mir, no babies yet? WTF!

    Gator, i've met a few but their legs are still less hairy than yours. hitting up MMW with one i think, although i can be as easily shot down here as at home. Very reserved people in this area, no english (but if i wanted to brush off some english guy i'd pretend not to speak it too)

    updates to folla. HOLLA!

    Slater,

  4. For those of you that I don't have on my email, here's a copy:

    Whats up group email!

    Sitting here in Germany waiting for a machine to free up so I can continue learning this jive.

    I know everyone who comes here says this but words can't describe how beautiful it is here. I am stationed in a tiny town (pop. 500) at the base of an old mountain range (sort of like the Tenessee hills but covered with lush deciduous forest) There are hot springs in three directions, all within walking distance but have been bought up and charge for their use. I'll get to them eventually but I haven't been able to pull myself away from the hiking. I arrived in Frankfurt Saturday morning very early got my rental car and drove to Gaggenau-Bad Rotenfels (my town) and fell asleep instantly. I woke up around 5:30 and decided to drive around the village and get my bearings. I ended up finding the logging road (very secluded) to the highest and closest peak near town. I followed it to the very top where there was an ancient firepit......so I made a fire and captured one of the most beautiful sunsets I've ever seen setting over the mountains on the opposite side of the valley all the while a 20 minute Reba was playing, the jam in that tune had me smiling considering where i was. Man, what a first night. I had to actually stop myself from saying `this is amazing´ over and over. I did some meditation amongst the birdsongs for about 30 minutes and then booked when it got dark.

    On Sunday I awoke to a sweet breakfast that the little old lady who owns my Gastehaus prepared for me. I'm staying in this very quaint Inn type place, like a bed and breakfast. I then went for a look around the place by car again and came to directions to Baden-Baden. Its sooooooo beautiful. The richest city in all of Germany i'm told, and it looks the part. Very touristy, lots of Chinese with cameras (cliche, I know) On my drive back I got lost but it was great! I ended up at the top of a different mountain that had an awesome trail to a castle situated on the very peak. For 50 Euro cents I went to the top turret and got the best view i've ever had in my life. Pictures to follow. Some German backpackers I befriended up there told me there was actually a crushed gravel trail that went almost from my hotel all the way to the base of the castle....so i hauled ass home and loaded the backpack and went for a 22km hike (round trip) to the castle and back. No pictures of that, the forest was too thick and I'm sure you've all seen trees before I did do a little dance to Glide though at the top of one hill. surreal.

    Tired as hell, i grabbed some beers at the gas station got about 4 in me and passed out.

    Monday (Monntag) I had to go to work. NO ENGLISH!!!!!! Try getting trained on complicated equipment when the dude training you knows NONE. They did manage to find a kid that speaks it but he is here and there all the time with his own responsiblities so its tough as hell but no big deal, i'll just have to be here longer (Damn, eh) That night I finished my tour of the town.

    The beer here is sooooooo tasty. There's a local brew, Cristoph-brau (sp?) that i've taken a liking to, damn its good. I would equate it to a sweet Creemore but less heavy. They change their flavours by season (the brewery) and so i won't get to sample their thicker stuff.

    Well, i'm being beckoned back to work so i'll leave it at that, take it easy all.

    Jeff

    BTW, this weekend is the Swiss Alps.

  5. Hey Jen, Drum circle sounds sweet! I am gonna try like hell to make that. Where in the park? Island?

    ...audio, ok. Just as long as i can hear Instagator hit the floor when he passes out. Will probably sound a lot like Curling. HURRY, HARD, PUSH IT, CMON!
