GEEZER TBO AKA THE BIG HOLE IN WALLET DAY 1

[Blaine Young]

THE WEATHER FOR DAY ONE WAS AS GOOD AS IT GETS.  MR. MAX TORQUE AND HIS CREW (WITH THE NOTABLE ABSENCE OF GARY W WHO WENT FURTHER WEST) PROVIDED HIS FAMOUS PULLED PORK SANDWICH TO THE ASSEMBLENGE.   MANY OF US WERE THROWN OFF A BIT BY THE SWITCH FROM THURSDAY TO SATURDAY TO FRIDAY TO SUNDAY.  IT MAY ACCOUNT FOR THE FIRST DAY TURNOUT WHICH COULD BE ONLY BE NAMED LIKE THE OLD COWBOY ACTOR SLIM PICKENS.  THIS WAS THE FIRST DAY EVER WHEN I DIDN'T BUY ANYTHING OVER THE YEARS.  UNFORTUNATELY, THERE ARE SOME EXPENSIVE ITEMS THAT APPEAR TEMPTING.  THE DANGER OF A LARGE HOLE IN THE WALLET CERTAINLY REMAINS FOR SATURDAY AND SUNDAY.
