Me too. I really need to scan some polaroids. I am about the same. Veg for 8 weeks or so around Feb/March, then outside around June. Come down around Mid Sept. Before we bought the property on the river, I used to load a 150' hose on the ATV, 1200gal a minute pump, Wand and Battery with 120v outlet. Ride into the Cascades, Drop the pump in river, plug it in, run the hose to the spot and water away. Man those were fun times.
On a side note, heres a funny story. I was smoking a spliff on the ATV coming back over the Cascades. A forrest service young kid in a truck was parked on the gravel road. Heard me coming, got out, told me to pull over. I kept going, he yelled at me, then gets in his truck and starts to chase me. He got close enough at one point, and I tossed my spliff on his windshield. That pissed him off. Then I went offroad and he was outta luck. It was a solid spliff too, dammit.
