"I'm not touching that dirty old thing"



Is Gordy losing ground with the little ones? Perhaps he needs to think about going somewhere where people will take care of him - maybe give him some food once in a while, a good drink perhaps, or maybe even a bath?? Hummmm...

gordy gets in on the family picture

What can we say, Gordy HATES to miss out when it comes to a photo op!

Gordy in Seattle

After a month at "sea", good ole gordy arrives back in Seattle ready to party.



He got back just in time to spend Thanksgiving at the Davishahl residence. After stuffing himself on appetizers, Gordy went for a ride in the oven.

Get your gord on

Even though Gordy got to travel all summer throughout the wild west the life of Gordy Fishsticks was lacking in some fundamental way - Gordy hadn't been on a boat in years. That all changed the day he stowed away and traveled to Bellingham and got on board the S/V Dinah-Moe Humm.

All aboard. Cast off the lines, stroke the oars and hoist the main. Let's go sailing Gordy.

Gordon looks relaxed at sea doesn't he? A little too relaxed perhaps as Gordy fell overboard while we tacked!! You may be asking "is he ok?!?!?" You better watch the video!

Back to School

Now that school is back in session again, the question of the day is "how was your summer?"...

So, gordy, how WAS your summer?

His latest response: "I really enjoyed looking in the bag"

tsk tsk gordy...i'm not sure I like that type of behavior.

fly away gordon

OH GORDY!!! Please, please don't jump!!!

phew...he has wings...thank goodness.



Looks like our little friend Gordy is really getting into the spirit of the music festival.

muff muff

puff puff....muff muff...or, is that muffler? poor gordy.

the mark of the deer!

At approximately 7:45 pm on July 30th, a deer trampled Eric while he was watching Nickel Creek make fools of themselves at the before-mentioned Rocky Grass Music Festival. NO JOKE folks! This really happened. Luckily for Eric (who now goes by Bleeding Antler), Gordy has been counseling him as his wounds heel.

a new game for the gordster

Matt spent hours teaching Gordy how to play Backgammon again (he once knew how but couldn't remember how to set up to board).

rockin out at rocky grass

Gordy had a fantastic time at this years Rocky Grass Music Festival!

Unfortunately, he couldn't get his tent setup correctly so he had to depend on the kindness of others to carry him through the weekend. He spent lots of time enjoying the Cha-Na and pulled a few all nighters with the jamming crowd.

swamp monster

Back with rebs and ash for a few days and neglected as usual, gordy was sucked up by the swamp monster (their version of AC). Luckily for rebs, she was able to rescue him from impending doom.

he boulders...

..his way to colorado (chill out rebs! gordy can't be rushed!)...

Gordy, working so hard to pull through the crux!! He falls a few times before making it to the top.

gordy...get your ass to colorado

where you belong. all i have is old memories of you...........

and be careful, those davishahls are trouble.....you can get real baked with them if you like.

Bitch Creek

Following the epic climb of the Grand Teton, Gordon passes out (it was brief) and then downs a serious amount of Bitch Creek. He feels great but his legs are weary.

Gordon Climbs the Grand Teton!!

Following the wedding festivities, Gordon heads back out on the road again. He huffed and puffed and somehow made it to the top of the Grand Teton. This is no small feat my friends!! HAIL GORDY!

wedding bells

Victor, Idaho
Linn Ranch

Hayes & Ryan get hitched and gordon watches it all!!

What a great wedding!! Gordon is seen here with the bride and groom just after they tied the knot. Lucky Gordy.

buggy

My my gordy!!! Well, it is a damn good thing that we don't make you ride on the front of the van. Holy hell - those Idaho bugs were bad!!! Thanks for helping us clean up - good ole gordo.

sniff the napkin roll

Well, it's been a while and it's time to get you all caught up on the adventures of the fishstick lover.

So, it started with two wonderful weeks in Hawaii with J&J - enjoying island life is what gordy did best.

He spent lots of time just hanging out on top of the kitchen table eating, enjoying the ocean view and getting sniffed (he smells great).




One special night he had a bit too much cha-na and needed to hide beneath the napkin roll. He did such a great job hiding that we could barely find him!

island guy

Gordy is currently enjoying a week's stay with Jim & Jessica on the Big Island (AKA Hawaii). HE LOVES IT HERE! The weather is warm, the surf is perfect, and the company is crazy (just how he likes it).

He spent last night at Yoga Oasis and is completely exhausted from his two hour morning yoga session.
More tales later! ALOHA

tofu and beer

Poor gordy hasn't been feeling well lately. He can't seem to leave the house without getting dizzy. He was suppose to go mushroom hunting with Chan on Saturday and to Ellen's farm on Sunday but just couldn't make it out. Poor guy...he really feels like he is missing out.

For the past two days, gordy has only eaten tofu. Here he is with his favorite type (fajitas style with tamari, balsamic, chili powder and a bit of oil) - he also likes it fried with braggs and yeast.

He was seen with a beer tonight so he must be on the mend. Good thing because he is heading off to Hawaii in a just a few short days!

Gordon Missed!

Whew. It's good to know we'll be able to keep up with Gordon, his travels, and his ball size with this new blog site.

Nice job, Jill!

It's even better to know that Gordon made the flight to Seattle in one piece and was well received by all. He's a real natural with fitting in to most any group, no?!

Well, we here in NC, the land of NASCAR, vinegar BBQ, tobacco, and mullets (note my sporty do) just want the the Big G to know we miss that ol' rascal. .

has gordy lost weight?

he seems to be looking really slimmed down to me. maybe it is that he quit smoking. i sure am glad gordy is back west. even though its summer, his rain jacket will be of use in sea town. the cool thing is that gordy is spending the summer with the folks that have it off! what a blast. cant wait to see gordy at rocky grass! i plan to pummel his ass! we love you gordy! This pic has nothing to do with gordy, but its still cute, no?

Flying Fishsticks

Here is Gordy hanging with the engineering crowd - today he learned about catapults and trebuchets.

Then, he was flying.

Gordon's Got Big Balls

Gordy arrives in Seattle

Back in Seattle again after helping Ash and Rebs move to CO and then a fantastic visit to NC to see Special K.

Gordy is so thankful that he will be able to spend the summer where the weather is reasonable.



Both Eric and Rowan are excited to see Gordy again.

Gordy feel exhausted and beaten after his trip through the mail wrapped in yellow paper.

Who the hell is Gordon Fishsticks?

An excerpt from the "Book of Gordy":

In the summer of two thousand and six, there were some serious adventures that were had. They involved years and years of friendships, old and new. These adventures involved belly aches from too much laughing, exhaustion from so much climbing, tears from forced separation, and a lifetime of memories. These adventures involved many many individuals - but, most of all, they involved the honorable Gordon F@*kin Fishsticks!! The one and the only: GORDY! This book (and now blog) documents the adventures of Gordy - I invite all to contribute to this catalog of events - write some thoughts, reflect on past times, share your current adventures. - Rebaba

For those of you who are resistant to change, there is no need to worry - the book will always remain with Gordy and will be kept up to date. There will be adventures that you can only read about in the book - the blog will serve only as a means of keeping up to date with Gordy while he is adventuring (those of us who are without him miss him very much while he is away). So enjoy! Post comments whenever you wish...and if you feel the desire to post an entry into the blog, never hesitate to do so.
