as many of you know i am new to caveing and in the hospital and doing well. My 3 friends from Yuma AZ Keith, lorie, and gamble flew out to see me they are avid cavers and alot of fun to be around. they are also glad that i am joining a grotto soon. Now they wanted to go to buyers so they went and they loved it and cant wait to come back again . All except tic tock (lorie) it seems that in AZ the time dosen't change . Well it got dark on the trail with the leaves falling they got off it somehow they had gps and could hear the interstate so they knew they would be ok . that was till tic tock slid into a gully and rolled into a half decomposed deer. as she emerged with blood, guts and funk on her she said for once the guys wouldnt even give her a hug. yep she was crying laughing wet tired smelly and soon to be cold cause to save money they chose to use my new ford350 pickup and not to get a rental car my truck still has that new car smell and only had 30 miles when they got it . thank God she rode in the back i only live a few miles from sues so it wasn't that bad."the ride that is" you know the funk was . they came back to tell all about it the next day me and the doc couldn't stop laughing at the poor little miss barbie doll thought i might pass it on and remember it is hunting season so be extra careful but they this one might have been hit by a car because it was so mangled
