Wow! What a weekend. Without question the most fun I've had at the Nehalem gathering. The weather could NOT have been better. 50+ and sunny, no wind...what more can you ask for in January on the Oregon Coast? Met a bunch of great people and made some new friends. Fun jam session on Friday night (Saturday was a bit too cold to risk our instruments so we said "NO!" many times to ...eh hem... certain people and you two know who you are... eh hem. :geek: ) Great food, a keg of Sierra Nevada Pale, music, beach, racoons... one we nicknamed "Colin" because he wouldn't get out from under Wayne's bus...thought it was a fitting name. Thanks all, that was a BLAST!!! See you all in Maupin, Mark

Wow great shots Paige. I like the Woody Burned shots. He had a bit of a rough time at my beach party last weekend. Glad to see he got out of ICU in time to go to Nehalem... I will be there next year.
Cheers

Hiya All,

Wow, looks like it was a great time!

And some of you are raising the bar photo-wise. Nice pictures all the way around.

I'll say! Jeepers Wayne, some of those beach shots are totally way rad dude. Not to mention the bus shots. Makes me want to invest in a SLR digital. =D>

Wayne must be Glasseye's long lost twin - those shots are great =D> Sure would have liked to make this one especially after seeing the weather you had.

Although.......I knew it was just a matter of time before Stephan gave someone crabs on one of these IAC campouts. Spider bites for Hambone and Crabs from Gypsie - these things are getting more dangerous everytime. It used to be a little Deep Woods OFF would get you through :compress:

Glad you guys had a good time!
