2010 Western Clave

JR What's the latest on showing our Scandahoovian friends the Big Sky?

Sorry for not replying earlier, but a few RL issues intervened (swine
flu, kitchen renovation).

As a group of travelling fishermen we are on hold, waiting for a
confirmation on whether or not my friend is able to fertilize his wife
before February. I think that my friends will succeed in his endeavour -
given his proven track record - which means that the potential Finnish
party would shrink to size 1.

Therefore I have decided to decide ASAP whether I will come there on my
own (with our Swedish neighbours, of course). I had actually decided to
make this decision a few weeks ago, but like I wrote above, natural
forces swung me around for a while. The decision to go solo frees me
from the earlier time constraints: I am able to take the trip any time
between, say, 30.6.-5.8. This also rules out the RV option, unless the
Swedes would like to take part in renting a motorhome.

In any case I *will* make a long road trip next summer. If I am going on
my own, the competing options are
1. the Western clave
2. northern Sweden / Norway, with focus on I. small streams and II. sea
trout
3. SE British Columbia / Alberta

Option #2 has been on my mind for a long time. I must also say that I
have read and *very* positive things about option #3.

I will post my final decision on this by 20.12. If you are going to have
the clave anyway, my decision deadline will not slow you down: since my
timetable is flexible, you can just decide on the dates and the
location, and by 20.12. I will tell you whether or not I will join.

Now it is time to do some serious Christmas shopping.
