Bluesapalooza 07

Brought some rookies to this years Bluesapalooza and for the most part they handled it like champs. We had a great time as always but here are a few hints for anyone coming to future festivals:

1. Come early so you can set up a base camp near the stage.
2. Eat something before you come for God's sakes
3. Pales and Lagers first then transitions to the Reds, Stouts and Porters
4. Eat again
5. Stay away from Irish bars after a full day of drinking beers with 11% Alcohol content.

Tubing

Made my 2nd annual trek to Bluesapalooza in Mammoth last weekend and it was just as fun as I remember it.. Just as fun as as the festival itself is tubing down the owens river the day before. This is a picture of Jim and I after the 3 hour ride. That we drank for the whole float probably explains the strange look on our faces...
