Greetings Fellow Extravaganzers:
With Der Blog turning 800 (visitors, that is) earlier this morning, just as each of you soon will be doing, today, I am in my final packing stages, preparing for my departure to Extravaganzaland early tomorrow morning. This is a special time for me as it is the knowing precursor to the nigh commencement of E-10 in just ten [count 'em!] days from now and, for you rookies out there, your now-near "rabbit hole" entry into the soon-ot-be-revealed Montanaesque experiences that will daily bless your psyche in the quickly approaching extravagant days ahead.
On our end, we are ready for E-10: (a) Kathy (now month-long on site) has her kitchen and the balance of Extravaganza Headquarters in "apple pie order" (with the last ten cases of [Elizabeth Spencer] wines scheduled to be delivered today); (b) the rivers are cooperating and shaping up nicely (there, the runoff blossoms forth and should complete its process sometime next week--right on time, I might add); (c) the Rock Creek Mercantile (our land-based provider) anxiously awaits your
arrival(s); and (d) and our wonderful outfitter (John "The Great But Propaneless" Gould, who has each of our 110 [count 'em!] boats teed up for their scheduled launches) is ready to "rock 'n' roll"...all that is missing is you--something that we will attend to/remedy in just a few days now.
As E-10 rapidly finds each of our doorsteps, I encourage each you to watch with me the continued rise and soon-to-be ebb of our Montana rivers' flows (our Extravaganza Coordinator Extraordinaire Patty Gallia will continue to keep you posted via email on a daily basis [she and her two wonderful daughters will be joining us this year with Group Three, btw]) and to keep your eye on Der Blog for further postings. As the commencement of E-10 draws nearer, as we have done in prior years, we will be posting E-10's daily updates to Der Blog only--a site that you should now share with your friends and family so they can watch and viscerally experience what you each will soon be extravagantly doing..
Hmmm....let's see, my last minute packing items include, oh yes, my (i) rain jacket; (ii) polarized sun glasses; (iii) Hawaiian shirt for Day One fishing, and (iv) multiple Grants for daily guide tipping.
Best to al packing up for it all,
R<'/C//<>R
