  1. well, they have electricity now. you can still get a good meal at falcon's restaurant, and the bar is still there but no more pool tables. as you can imagine the border being closed for a decade didn't do them any favors.
  2. the camping situation in the basin was ridiculous. we didn't have too much trouble finding a spot on thursday morning, but when we left on saturday we had some asshole trying to set up camp in our site before we even took our tent down. there were people there before sunrise scoping out spots.
  3. Spent last week in Big Bend. We did a 4 day canoe trip through Boquillas Canyon followed by 2 nights in the Basin. We did a guided float through Big Bend River Tours and it was fantastic. They fed us like kings: steaks, salmon, enchiladas, cheesecake...it really took it to the next level and may be the only camping trip where I walked away feeling like I gained weight. The river was at about 110 cfs but there were only a couple places where we bottomed out. A couple of class 2 rapids but otherwise a very calm and relaxing float. We also got to explore some very nice side canyons. The Basin almost felt claustrophobic after being on the river for 4 days, but we did get to summit Casa Grande...which has been on my list for a while. From Casa Grande
  4. the new dead meadow album is good.
  5. May 23, 2000 A Perfect Circle and NIN at Starplex. Was the release date of the first APC album, and The Fragile tour for NIN. First time to see both and was amazed by the NIN stage show. David Gilmour at the Paramount Theater in Oakland is a close 2nd. Hearing Echoes live...fuck.
