Gary....what can I say about Gary....what can't I say about Gary??? One of my best friends in the entire world. He introduced me to Burning Man and helped me explode out of my funk and into a new and incredibly fun world. You'd never guess he just turned 40 - he has more energy and imagination than most guys half his age...and the 20 years of wisdom and experience to know what to do with that energy and imagination! You can count on Gary for anything. He might be a bit late, he may not know that your house is white vinyl siding instead of stucco or that you live on 7th Street instead of 5th Street even though he's been there a thousand times....but he'll always show up and then the party will begin! Or, he'll just help you install your dog door...or grill the burgers for the BBQ...

Don't let the flipping raft fool you...I'd trust Gary to guide me down any river. He guided us down Hells' Canyon despite internal dissent and doubt...his cheerful and sarcastic nature is sometimes just a cloak for serious serious serious business...
