Posted by: vinny In: pct

Vinny,

How’s life treating you? Things here have been going well so far. Temp is freaking crazy over 100 during day, record highs, and then will freeze. One day in sand and cactus, later in trees and snow. Yesterday I ate breakfast with a rattlesnake. Took some pics and then tried to trade snickers for his [...]
