Yep, that's right, no more towels. Shammies all the way from here on out. I highly suggest using a couple of shammies next time we go to Powell, and not bringing anymore towels. They're compact, are designed to be used wet, and don't require drying space. I've been using one for the last few weeks on the lake and am converted. Here is a photo demonstration of how they work; notice how fun it is. First, this is my shammy:
The fishermen behind me love it because it's a durable synthetic available from most auto parts stores. The first step is to dry yourself off with the shammy. Note that the shammy is damp before using.

Finally, roll up the shammy and stow it in the compact carrying case:
All done, all dry, and no more stupid towels. Only $9.95 for all this convenience. We use one shammy for everyone on the boat, and since it doesn't need to be dry it always works. Seriously, they're sweet.

Dave is amazed at this little natural bridge. Look at the amazement on his face. Astonishing.
Here is a nice tight slot:
Weathertop. Beware of the Ring Wraiths.
We got a sweet lightning show at night:
Then it rained and we went home:
