Old Sled Drivers from Kotzebue. They don't let us out much.

So, I notice from the other diners in the picture that they pretty much take you guys in stride. I would say you were in Kotz, but the others look too normal -- couldn't be Nevada either?

Great picture, I'm sure a few good stories were told.

Half a century spent proving “it is better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.”

Experience is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted.

Reno actually. Reminds me of Anchortown in lots of ways. If'n it was a pic from Kotz in the Pondu or Whale, you'd see creatures from the bar scene in Star Wars in the background.

As for the bystanders... Cloudy ain't exactly the shy and retiring type. He had their full attention from the first minute there.

PS: Z, what Groucho getup ya talking about? You mean the snazzy shirt?

Hi Gump!

You should have seen the look on my better half's face when I showed her this picture and said, "This is the guy I bought my used propeller from." She was speechless! She's curled up on the couch right now crying but when she feels better I'm going to suggest that we go flying. :D :D

(ps: the prop works great... my mechanic cleaned it up, painted it, and it works like a new one)
