Here is an up date after attending Geowoodstock 14er. The next day, July 4th I received a call from a fire captain with Walker County back home that Chuck's Durango caught fire while parked under my carport. Chuck was watering my garden areas. The truck burned the carport and the end of my house. His truck was totally destroyed along with my Alumna trailer and my boat and trailer. The house is now a total loss due to the fire going thur the top and smoke damage. I'm now in the process of getting and replacement mobile home. The insurance company has me living in a fifth wheel camper. I had to get the well house wired to the garage so I could get water and power to the camper. After leaving the Denver area visiting the CO Balls, I traveled up to Redbird, WY to replace the geocache container that had bit the dust as they say. Then it on to Buffalo, WY for Longmire Days. That was a load of fun despite Katie Sackoff and Peter Weller were not being there. I left there to travel to Noxon, MT to visit with Grant and Deela for a few days. I stopped and visited the Little Big Horn National Park. Wow, that was a huge area where all that fighting was going on. It was really relaxing at the Winkler's and I didn't want to leave. Deela can cook some fine delicious food! On the way back I stopped in Idaho and did a dive at the hot spring South of Arco, ID. I Had found this neat place five years ago seeking a geocache that wasn't there. I visited the Craters of the Moon area, as I now get in free. I checked a geocache I logged five years ago only to find only two more logs since I was last there. I was mostly driving, napping and eating getting my self back to GA to deal with the mess at home from there on.

Finnaly after three weeks I got water flowing again. The well was drilled down to 460 feet deep and got a new control unit for the Aqua Clear system was installed. On July 4th a friend was at The Property watering my gardens while I was out of town. He had parked under the carport because of the high temps in GA. His Durango caught fire and the carport is a total mess. Boat melted and Alumnia trailer is toast. The fire also got to part of the house as well. I enjoyed Geowoodstock in the Denver, CO previous to the home disaster.
