Run a Muck - Check in

[Hippie]

  Welcome home Run a Muckers...

I arrived home yesterday afternoon after a most relaxing Post Bluegrass decompression trip. Mika the wonder dog has not let me out of her sight since we got home. She had a wonderful time on a mountaintop in the Santa Lucia range near Monterrey where the dogs had free range of the terrain 24/7. Sorta sounds like the Run a Muck Camp at TBF 2007 

Thank you to one and all for making this the best TBF experience I've had to date.

Please check in here and let us know you arrived home safe and sound, wherever that may be.

Peace n Love

Hippie Jerry

[arcticdesertnomad]

Still in Albuquerque, though I am going to hit the road tomorrow morning for Grand Canyon country.  Then, it's off for a day and a night in Vegas to experience that flavor of madness.

[Hooch]

Hi Jerry.

Daniela and I made it home about 3 hours after leaving (stop groaning!).

Check out the photos at www.utarpiaphotos.com

Really fun folks to meet and share a tarp with - thanks for that
Unique cuizine, I hear the spaghetti sauce is out of this world
Never a dull moment at camp

Amazing kitchen set up and equally fine chefs

Music driven
Unbelievable food and home brew
Creative tent/tarpology with a one of a kind camp environment
Kind, Krazy, Kreative Krewe of Kreatures that kollaborate to kreate a killer kamp.

 
So much fun to meet the new friends I've met through the forum.  A little strange to connect so fast with people all over the place, tarp to tarp, festivarian forum folk were everywhere.
Sarah did a fabulous job as virgin enthusiast and ABGATer.
Hope came in and was only new in the books, you were there long before you got there.
Hooch's yummy hooch was inspiring and I can't wait to try that again
Daniella, thanks for the kind moment amidst the toe jobs
AJ and Connie - what a force of friendly fun
Spoogie, aka Cody aka Chris, the local wood nymph gone bad, and you play the banjo? mando?
Ron - well you just take whatever you can get and go with it.  Sorry the body shots never manifested (shut up ron)
Karlos, what a captain, you did well going with the flow and flowing as you go
Hippie, you're the scarecrow

Thanks for all your efforts and what a pleasure to meet you'all and remeet those I already knew.



 Listening to: again, the quiet hum of the AC - LA is hot right now.

Hey Jerry-
Just finished 4 loads of laundry & all my dresses are soaking in the sink.
Did my radio show this morning.

I'm repacking for High Sierra - leaving on Wed.

Thanks for a great Telluride.  See you at Hardly Strictly.

Awww Shucks - I always wanted to be the cowardly lion.

Scarecrow
I could while away the hours, conferrin' with the flowers
Consultin' with the rain.
And my head I'd be scratchin' while my thoughts were busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain.
I'd unravel every riddle for any individ'le,
In trouble or in pain.
Dorothy
With the thoughts you'll be thinkin' you could be another Lincoln
If you only had a brain.
Scarecrow
Oh, I could tell you why The ocean's near the shore.
I could think of things I never thunk before.
And then I'd sit, and think some more.
I would not be just a nothin' my head all full of stuffin'
My heart all full of pain.
I would dance and be merry, life would be a ding-a-derry,
If I only had a brain.
Dorothy
Ohh! Wonderful!
Why, if our scarecrow back in Kansas could do that, the crows'd be scared to pieces!
Scarecrow
They would?
Dorothy
Yes
Scarecrow
Where's Kansas?

I have been hoping for one of Jerry's waffles since 2002 and still have yet to have one, but at least I can say I went up and looked at one this year! They were beautiful. Everything and eveyone one in Camp Run A Muck was beautful, for that matter.  Such a pleasure to wander up there and be in your company. Thanks for the late night coffee and the place in the shade when the heat was too unbearable for me.

   We made it home safe after about 10 hrs drive and hid inside for 1 day of decompression and then it was back to work for me! 

Luanna....i think we might be able to  have Jerry's waffles at HSBF if we are good!  I can personally say from experience that they are heavenly! (especially with strawberries!)   

[TheBanjomatic]

Jerry,

My thanks go out to you and Telluride Tom and to everyone for such a welcoming experience for my first year at TBF. I will surely be back next year, though I will probably pace myself better rather than cram it all into one week!!

I got home safely to Connecticut, though i seem to have been bitten by a bug - I just can't sit still now waiting for next year.

[TellurideTom]

I'm still in the decompression mode, but looking forward to Rockygrass.
It was a wonderful year at Telluride and I enjoyed meeting all the festivirgins.
Today I sat on my deck listening to old vinyl John Hartford just to get into the festivarian spirit again, and it worked.
Looking forward to the rest of the year, and the possibility of making more new friends next year.

Bluegrass Rules!

[Ron N Deb]

Hi all,

Just wanted to let you all know that after an amazing road trip back to Denver Samantha and I arrived home safely yesterday. I have been in a foul mood since I stepped onto the plane!!! lol

I also wanted again, to thank everyone in Run A Muck (and everyone else we met) for making Samantha and I feel so welcome.  We could never have imagined what an amazing experience we had with you all.  This festival was something that we will never forget and an experience we will always hold close to our hearts.

Thank you all,

Sam & Samantha
