Bob. I am not looking for anything specific. I want to enjoy the company of my friends, Juan Pozzi, Alberto Foerster, and their amigos and families in San Francisco, and perhaps the possibility of visiting with Nainital, Afrikaander and Gustavo from Buenos Aires. I will miss Buenos Aires this trip, going down through Santiago, Chile, and Cordoba. I am sure they will have something of interest for me to pursue. But I will report. Steve. Thanks for the good wishes.....I follow your footsteps, but keep an eye out for the brother of that Yarara you shot.  "When you play, play hard; when you work, don't play at all."

Hey Bill !!! Glad to see you are here again ... I have to solve out some minor problems and if so, I would be able to go to San Francisco this incoming weekend ... An asado shared between friends (and what is more important , friends that also hunt) is something quite irresistable ... ------------------------------------------  Μολὼν λάβε Duc, sequere, aut de via decede. | |||

Just wondering how Bill's excellent asado adventure is going. How many asados does he have under his belt? So many that he needs a new belt? SCI Life Member DSC Life Member | |||

What a tease. Malbec really does well there. In California it can be hit or miss. | |||

Eeh huela, what a wonderful trip once more. I am working on a story and will post photos. Now there is hunting, and there is hunting. One is to hunt for trophies, and one to hunt for meat. My preference is to hunt for meat.....meat that is already cooked....I hunt for asados!  And I collected many. There is nothing much better than a combination of costillos, vino tinto, and beautiful nurses. With this there is no language barrier. And for Jim Manion, I am now a confirmed Mate man. I have experienced all the pasture has to offer and have my own mate and yerba. Had a cup this evening......my hair is turning green.  I will report more in the next day or so on a new post. But let me not leave this thread failing to report that in my opinion, there are no better people to be with, to hunt with, to enjoy life with, than Juan Pozzi and Alberto Foerster. My plan is now to return in May, and this next time, for a month or two. "When you play, play hard; when you work, don't play at all." Theodore Roosevelt | |||
