Oh my gosh! I would so love to meet you in New York, with Roberta! I can tell you that Boidy is well worth the trip. Better than the Met, except for the Rodin section from which I was nearly asked to exit. They disapprove of fondling the sculptures. But I digress.

Good luck wherever it is.

Except for the Rodin section?! Diane, you're in deep doo-doo. If you manage to haul your rear to NY, you'd better bring your hip boots.

Hmmm, I posted this before and it disappeared.
Are we in another A2k-timewarp?

My guess is that you are going to the Phillipines Mame. The world boom in metals has several hundred deposits that are relatively unexplored or else theyve been initially sampled and sat upon until the value of copper and nickel rose (to where its at today).

Yep, youre goin to the Phillipines. Ill probably be over there to set up an assignment in October or November.

They were seeking gold, dadpad.

Phillipines - well! That would be interesting. I guess I could always buy me a pair of shoes there.

I'll leave you two to get lost in there for several hours and hook up with you later. Call me a Philistine but I do NOT like sculptures!

I've already done more work than a dozen men by the time you roll your lazy ass out of bed to start making pancakes.

Don't you start with me, woman.

Yeah, bubba? I roll my lazy ass out of bed at 4:30 a.m. What the hell kind of work do you do during the middle of the night? Or do I even want to know? Hmmm?

I think I saw Gus standing on a street corner under the street light last night. He was wearing his red speedos and an ostrich boa.

Aren't we supposed to know by now where we're going next?

Ah - he didn't come in yesterday. He's arriving today around noon, having a confab with the drill owners and then we'll see.

All the boys (drillers) are grumbling. They're working, getting paid, getting fed - what's their problem? I'm sick of it. I just tell them to be glad they're not in Siberia. Geesh. Get a reality check already. They're pissed off today because the big boys are flying in in a chopper. Big deal!

Update

He wants to take me to the Napa Valley on a wine tour in April. He's not going to the June convention (boo hoo), so I guess neither am I. Drat, I thought I could get a ticket to New Yawk paid by someone else! Smile

I have five more drillers coming tonight. And two visitors for breakfast.

Conrad would also like me to cook for their June camp, so I have to get some firm dates and numbers and see if I'd like to do that. I hear it's going to be 20 guys, but they'd give me a second cook, so, it wouldn't be too, too bad. And we'd keep our same zany, whacked out (in a good way) camp manager. Anyway, I have a prior commitment, but I have to confirm that, too. One way or the other.

Anyway, that's the news. Except I went up in the chopper this morning to see the drill sites and damn I forgot my camera. I'm kicking myself. Great views!

Mmmmm, spring in Napa, should be nice. Wonder if you'll be at Copia..
And there's a neato wine bar on Main Street, or was back in 2004.

Wonder if you'll get to the Jimtown Store, north of Healdsburg..

oh, and Dean and deLuca. Aaack, and Oakville Grocery...
