THE JO-TEL … where long-form blogging comes to die

These rankings are a function of four factors: (1) practical utility to the trip, (2) activeness (including physical presence and not falling asleep during peak hours), (3) humor, (4) affability/gregariousness.  Also, I have left myself off this list for reasons that are obvious.  I had a great time in Shasta with all 1-25.  I could have stayed on the boat for another three days.  But, then again, the food was getting a bit gamey.
