Is that " Chuck " playing on the table?

Camp life with the GO board set up for play

I do not see his truck!

Nope, that is me... I still am working on dropping a couple (40) pounds. I think Chuck is skinnier than I am! Once the 40lbs come off Chuck and I will take over the world *insert evil laughing from Chuck and I*

Awesome pictures. Those were some sweet sunset shots. Nice Job.

DUDE!!!!! These are sweet pics.

I think this one is way cool, too, with all of those crazy rocks laying there. Scattered about by some ancient volcanic explosion.

Way to go!

Very Nice Indeed!

OK!.......now I have to go there........especially since it's in my backyard!

I saw somebody wrote about "camp at 4S Ranch". I can see that on the online Maptech I look at. That seems up a ways north of P. State Park.

Is there any way one of you could do a map with a line showing your route?

I would love to camp along the river and have a kayak or canoe to enjoy the river more....and explore!

Nice Pics

Hey Mark, i think that is a different Black Mtn, then the one in San Diego!

I could be wrong but i dont think that it is accessible via 4wd.

I hope i am wrong, because i would like to explore it more as well.

Where is this guys? In San Diego? If so, i wish i had known!

Head to the planning page for this trip....it explains where and how to get there.

When I get my truck out of Mr. Sucky's shop......lets do a group trip out there!....before it gets too hot!

Gotcha! Very Cool! Lets go check it out, when you finally come to your senses and pull your rig from that destruction facility disguised as an engine rebuilder and bring it elsewhere!

Reason i asked is because my office is located right off of the 15 near the black mountain ranch exit. I dont see any trails around anywhere and the Black Mountain they refer to is more of a small hill!

Anyway, enough chat on a good thread, email me!

However, don't think it was all easy for me. Here:

. . . is a picture of my lonely, eeeeeeeempty coffee cup sitting in full morning sunshine, waiting for someone - ANYONE? - in the background to wake up and put the kettle on!

Are you saying we sleep in too late for you?

For those who played a little Go on this trip, here are a couple of links:

Interactive Introduction to Go

Igowin is a little program that can play Go. Not too strong and not the best style, so don't play it too much, play some human opponents.

If you want more, this site has lots of stuff.
