HHHHMMMMMM - trying to impress the non-caving, non-camping GF while surrounded by a bunch of TX cavers - you might wanna have that expensive DIY bungalow as a place of sanctuary if you want even a prayer of getting laid after introducing her to this bunch - even if it is located in "Paradise".
Seriously dude - I was considering the exact same dilemma you described below.....but then I opted for camping on the river with my caver and camping sweetie! Get laid, then roll into the river for a swim - doesn't get much better than that ;-) - said the woman who will be knocking on your door on day two for a hot shower! I can't wait to meet your girl! AND - I can finally pay off that WS debt!!! julia -----Original Message----- From: Frank Binney <fr...@frankbinney.com> To: Lyndon Tiu <l...@alumni.sfu.ca>; Texas Cavers <Texascavers@texascavers.com> Sent: Sun, Jun 3, 2012 8:26 pm Subject: [Texascavers] Cabins at Paradise Canyon for 2012 TCR Hi Lyndon, I just sent Paradise Canyon my $155 first night deposit for one of the cabins. Now I face a typical thrifty caver's dilemma: Save $$$ by jamming as many cavers as possible into a tiny sleeping space (a strategy that worked well for Pete Strickland, Logan McNatt, Blake Harrison and me at 1307 1/2 Kirkwood back in the day), or increase my chances of getting laid during the weekend by maintaining the cabin as a romantic retreat space for just my enamorada and me. How to decide...how to decide...
