I agree Gypsy Cowgirl: Oregon, Washington and Idaho have so much beautiful scenery. I have a friend in Hood River who does a lot of wind-surfing on the Columbia as it approaches Portland

I am ready for another show at the Gorge

How about it guys, next summer? Perfect spot for the Dead. Have seen Phil, Dylan, and String Cheese here for a show; The Other Ones and the Dead here plus many others.

NOW, my hubby's childhood friend lives in Hood River. Wouldn't THAT be something if it's the same person....oh, wait-he's not a wind surfer-a sailer, though & worked @ the ski lodge for years......."NOW wait a minute" (didn't Pigpen used to say that in songs?) hubby says they may have done some, but not alot. I guess how could you not wind surf up there? It's so cool. (I didn't dare-horses, bicycles, swimming & walking only for me) & YEH, great idea, Hal R-the Gorge in the summer-we'd go 4 sure. That'd be fun-we could all meet........I'll see what I can muster up........haha.....xoxoxo Gypsy Cowgirl
ps-is there a tour or just us wishful thinking?
