National Pirate Day happened to fall on the weekend of the
gathering, So I brought Captain Jack Sparrow to join the
festivities.

"This may be the last picture you see of this nice home made Beauty"
It is sad to say but the axle broke on one of the hubs while driving at Hi-way speed out side
of Winnimuca NV. Causing loss of control & thus the Teardrop to roll threw the the desert it
was lucky that the safety chains broke because if they did'nt the HHr tow vehicle would of
also rolled & may have caused some serious harm to the driver.
But he & all of use are greatfull that he was not harmed.

Doug is in awe when he see's the old table.
(I,m not sure if his awe is due to seeing the table or realizing part of his past is in a museum)

Everyone eating & talking around the fire this was our nightly ritual.
Except this night a few of us after most everyone called it a night decided to head for the
natural hot springs out in the desert.
It was really it was great at the springs, the stars we're so bright it was like you could touch
them, the hot pot we ended up at sat up on a hill over looking the valley, you could see for
miles, there was a distant glow on the horizon to the South of us in the direction of area 51
the ladies in the pool did not want to hear anything about area 51 or alien's, But we could not
resist.
(Lights we're most likely Las Vegas some 300 miles away)

Sorry about the pictures of the hot springs, What happens in Nevada stays in Nevada.
(If you want to see the pictures you will have to attend the next Glyph's Gathering)
There is rumor these geothermal hot springs may not be around much longer due to
the land has been leased for a possible geothermal power plant.

I hope Doug & Kevin have plenty of water they may be waiting awhile.
It's always nice to have some extra curricular activities.(Safety First Always.)
In the filming of these activities no wildlife was harmed just a few cans &
