Rob;
Count me in again. Can we get some parabolas? What's a 744? How about
hydrophones?
An emersion session would be cool. Canoes and horses too, but would add a
learning curve for some I'll bet. Hell, I don't know what button to push t=
o
start a horse or where the battery is. I'd be willing to learn though -
sounds like fun.
I too would lie later in May rather than earlier. Any chance to make it a =
3
dayer?
I have a new truck too:-) Blue car is still ticking along OK, but on last
wheels. Trying to find a driver who want's a car for a demo derby. So the
beast can go out in style and glory.
Would it be hard to go to the Boundary Waters area? Mississippi sounds
good. Was Star Valley where we was last year? That was OK too.
My input.
Eric

I'm up for sound trolling Ol Man River, Star Valley or other-- except
May 5 is too early for me. The weekend before memorial wkend May
20-22 is the earliest weekend I can do. I can bring 2-744's, one from
school assuming some of my students participate. If we do Star
Valley, there's a very nice, large cottage we could rent nearby for
non-campers (and rain). Rob D.
