What's the Big Deal?

[Roy]

Yeah, I guess.  But the first time I run into a bunch of "City Folks" out near Slickrock Canyon, I'm gonna get UPSET :twisted: .  I've already run into one bunch out back of Ernst Tinaja.

Another true story.

Was entering the park from Maverick, saw a large RV pulled over in a pull out, could see that it was also towing a sail boat (bright yellow).  Then a little 4WD Subaru pulled out from behind the boat and got in front of me.  We got to the visitors center, the occupants of the Subaru got out:  a couple of a certain age, hair perfect, makeup perfect, matching khaki outfits, with leopard print ascots, Aussie bush hats with a perky little feather in the band.  They walked up to the desk, started asking about the camp sites along the River Road, one at a time.  The Ranger would describe each site, there would be about a 5 second silence, then the woman would ask "Yes, but is it nice?"  After about the third repetition, I figured out what was happening, got directly behind them and starting displaying my biggest S--- eating grin for the amusement of the Ranger.  I thought he was going to have a hernia.
The couple left about a half hour later, got in their RV and headed out of the park.

Bobcat,

I am sorry the video doesn't work.  I think I saw that you will be in BB Mar 20.... I will be there Mar 23-26.  I can give it to you on a CD if I catch up with you in the park.  Let me know...
