Boy oh boy, there is a lot happening here at ExNotes. It seems like the travel has been nonstop the last few weeks, and not just with me. Sue and I have been back and forth to the east coast for a funeral, a wedding, a birthday party, and more. I had the pig hunting trip with Baja John to Arizona recently. I’m headed up to good buddy Paul’s to pick up couple of custom Bowie knives he crafted for me (and I’ll have the story on those in the near future). Bo Randall, move over. These are grand times.
As I’m sitting here, our home has the pleasant aroma of Italian meat sauce (for which I provided my recipe a few years ago). I’m making stuffed shells for my grandkids later today, and the first part of that calls for the gravy (as Tony Soprano would have said).
But it’s not just yours truly who’s been active (and actively writing). Bobby Surber recently reported on the Grand Canyon’s North Rim fire, and she is also preparing a series on her recent trek through Patagonia.
The first installment of Bobbie’s Patagonia adventure runs this Saturday, with future episodes to post every Saturday thereafter. This is good stuff. I get to read it before you do, and I’m here to tell you the writing and the photography are superb.
Mike Huber continues to amaze us with his writing talent, with stories coming up on Thailand, Nepal, and more (much more).
Bumping into Mike at that impromptu gas stop in Baja (where we bought gas out of bottles from the Bajaeno captitalistos) was one of the luckier breaks I’ve had in my life. I love Mike’s stories, and it’s not just because we’re both Airborne. Mike tells a good tale. You’re going to love what we have coming your way.
Good buddy Gobi Gresh is hard at it again, applying his resurrection, writing, and reporting (the Three Rs?) skills to his latest project bikes, a pair of 1962 Honda Dreams. He’s into both bikes to the whopping tune of $750 so far, and he’s got one of them running already.
This is good stuff, folks. My reward is I get to read Joe’s writing first. You’ll see what I mean as Joe’s sweet Dreams continue.
Stay tuned, click on those pesky popups (make ’em pay!), and hit the Donate button below if you like what you’re seeing. Good stuff is coming your way.
