my favorite blog so far!!!
dude those emerald lakes are outta control. leora and i were like "whoaaaaa man". so it looks like u guys are becoming quite the outdoorsman. that goon mobile reminds of the shaggon wagon (without the fur). and i was wondering if that beef curry is as good as the jack links kippered beef teryaki that we love so much...
