Welp, looks like I’m going to have a change of plans, and won’t be joining the party after all this year. I’ve been at the same company for 20 years, and this is the first time my job is going to get in the way of my fun.
So…have a blast for me. My plan is to stream on KOTO, while I sit in the sun getting burnt, and every so often I’ll kick up a cloud of dust and breathe it in so I can wake up with those Telluboogers every day. It’ll be like being there.
sigh
Warm beer at this cooler. Who will get the ice? I will miss your sweet family.
Have no fear! The rest of the family doesn’t have my job…they get to go festivate, and you get ice!
What a total bummer! Michael and I will miss your smiling face.
Ellen
Drats, dude. Really sorry to hear you won’t be there. We will miss having you as our neighbor at our traditional spot inside the festival. But we’ll be there, drinking one for you, and will be looking forward to having you next door in 2015!!
Sorry to hear Huck, I’m in the same “boat” so to speak… This one was gonna be 15 straight. There’s so much I’m gonna miss… The music of course and the most beautiful canyon I’ve ever been to… But mostly the smiles on the faces of people I know and many I don’t!! 1st beer on me next year Huck, look forward to meeting you .
No worries Jeff, you know your family is in good hands. :flower
We’ll miss you but there’s plenty of other smiles to fall back on. 
Thanks all…Yes, Tom, i know they’ll be in good hands. And Bevin, they’ll be shade slumming without me running, so take good care of 'em. Lord knows, they deserve it…living with me and all
Dustin, I’ll see you at Rockygrass…Tessa & I swung a trade…she gets TBF, i get Lyons. As a consolation prize, it’s pretty damn good.
Gosh, hearing from my pod makes the decision even more painful. Ellen, I’ll miss your hugs, but it will make the next one better. As for Michael, warn him i’ll be hunting him in Lyons! Kara, I promise, you & Pablo will be in good hands…lots of ice 
That’s a shame! You will be missed, Jeff. I guess I’ll just have to look forward to seeing you in 2015.
Deal. I look forward to it 
The day just got s bit dimmer. Beers on me the next time we meet :cheers
:thumbsup
We’ll see you at Rocky!
