Theo, stay strong, you have many friends and supporters, some like me that haven't met you, but not a day goes by that I don't think about you and what you have gone through. Just know that we all support you and hope to see you back in the gorge again. Next summer, come back and we'll retreive a couple of those rocks that were thrown. _________________ www.jimstringfellow.com pkh Since 27 Feb 2005 6549 Posts Couve / Hood Honored Founder Mon Aug 22, 11 2:53 pm     Very cool! toldy Since 19 Aug 2011 6 Posts Kook Mon Aug 22, 11 2:58 pm     very cool indeed! pdxmonkeyboy Since 16 May 2006 6081 Posts forever labled as the retired kiter & motorhead Unicorn Master Mon Aug 22, 11 3:16 pm     that is sooo awesome! _________________ Bury me standing cause I won't lay down!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVvAw2VFR4Y&feature=PlayList&p=FB7233C37686AC79&playnext_from=PL&playnext=1&index=34 jp Since 04 Mar 2005 87 Posts wherever there are whitecaps   Mon Aug 22, 11 3:48 pm     beautiful !! blancoh2o Since 15 Mar 2005 1154 Posts Oregon Phishy Mon Aug 22, 11 8:33 pm     Thank You for documenting the ceremony Stringy! (I think you were busy shooting and didn't get to hear the instructions) For clarification the ceremony works like this: Each participant writes on two rocks. Rock #1 has negative things and emotions written on it and thrown into the river Rock#2 has inspiring words and is kept with you FOREVER. The concept is to remove negativity from your soul, life and heart. This was the second time in my life I participated in a rock ceremony. This will be a tradition for me. Please take a moment and have ceremony of your own for Theo if you didn't get a chance to do so at BOTG. It is mind cleansing and healthy. _________________ KB4C!!!!!!!!!!!! https://kb4c.rallyup.com/kb4c/286ef9/Member blancoh2o Since 15 Mar 2005 1154 Posts Oregon Phishy Tue Aug 23, 11 9:36 am    :-) Another photo of the rock ceremony    303075_10150276061147113_747762112_7573225_8278388_n.jpg  _________________ KB4C!!!!!!!!!!!! https://kb4c.rallyup.com/kb4c/286ef9/Member Blokt Since 17 Nov 2008 196 Posts Hamlin rocks, doody-root-tuders!
