backpacking nightmare...View Messagestwiggy “That sounds like something worth flying up for. Have not been to Maine for several years. How far from Portland is this? Please put me on your "secret email list".” 3:25:43 PM 12/19/02 “I think it's 4-5 hours from Portland to BSP. Bangor is closer, not sure how the price compares though. A trip with me will officially turn you into a Maineiac, ya know. o(=}” 3:36:07 PM 12/19/02 “I have flown into Portland before, but not Bangor. Only times I have been to Maine were on biz with Bath Iron Work's shipyard. One nice thing about flying into Portland was L.L. Bean was on the way to Bath. What kind of temps, bugs, ect. should one ready for?” 3:43:32 PM 12/19/02 “Sounds like you need to go do some hard core backpacking to ease your mind. 8)” 5:07:31 PM 12/19/02 “This nightmare sounds like performance anxiety to me. IMHO.” 5:09:15 PM 12/19/02 “I think I know what your Maineiacs dream was about. You dreamnt that Wolfy's Bro ate all our food. No wait... that wasn't a dream. He really did that. ;o) Hey, I'm up for that Fall trip! I'll just skip my Acadia portion this time. Besides, like the guy on the commercial who finished the Internet, I finished Acadia.” 6:02:28 PM 12/19/02 “Temps vary. September is supposed to be pleasantly cool, but this year we had a heat wave. Should be few, if any bugs at all. I should tell you guys about my really weird dreams! This particular dream is the fault of my new hiking buds, I just know it! A great bunch and we have a great time. However I'm used to hiking by myself and my solo habits are glaring, so I've been getting teased alot. I'm always ready at the agreed upon meeting time, so I pace while they pack. Since I graze while hiking, I pace while they sit down for a real lunch. In my dream they were cooking lunch while waiting for me to pack. Turn around's fair play! o(:} I've been invited to join this crazy group of mountain bikers this summer, can't wait to tell you my dreams after a few trips with them!” 8:01:46 PM 12/19/02 “Had a dream I was at Zeleski in Ohio. Got to camp and had no spoon and my cookpot had a hole in it. I had to bum an MRE spoon from walkindude...Oh wait, that really happened.” 8:22:03 PM 12/19/02 “PS Pennsy....Isle au Haut is part of Acadia NP...so if you haven't been there you haven't finished it yet!” 9:50:02 PM 12/19/02 “strange no one has mention showing up at the trailhead in the buff...” 3:28:46 AM 12/20/02 “We left without saying goodbye!!! Had to be a dream. When we left, the feelings were similar to graduation day... When we graduated, we felt like we'd never see our friends again. Sadly, we can't seem to keep in touch with every one. The Isle au Haut trip and Baxter in winter trip will seem so much like a reunion!!!! We are so looking forward to good friends and good times. Seeya in Baxter!!!” 5:20:52 AM 12/20/02 “I know, I'm really psyched about Isle au Haut, it's gonna be FUN! Can't wait until Matt gets that trip planner up and running! o(=}” 9:15:00 AM 12/20/02 “LMAO @ Birch!!!!!!” 9:18:34 AM 12/20/02
