First, thank you rrr for the chance to win that beautiful shirt you donated...trouble is my wife confiscated it from me as soon as I got back to camp!
Got to see my ol' buddy 'Mac again, it's always a joy to chew the fat with him! And two folks I've waited a number of years to meet and shake hands, Don & DRH, are just as lively a couple of memorable characters as they portray themselves here on the Web!!!
I also was rewarded with a lengthy and intelligent discussion of the issues with Bear Islander...worth the trip in itself.
And it was also fantastic to see the Skipper once again, looking forward to your pictures.
And to everyone else that mingled and shared a moment or two of small talk, you all reminded me of why I am so addicted to this site and the memorable cast of caring people that daily fill these pages.
And yes, I was truly disappointed that Islander didn't stop by...it would have been fun to put a face and share conversation with such a passionate debater.
Finally Don, thank you once again for being the one that in the end makes this all possible.
It was a super way to spend an afternoon in what is truly one of the most beautiful spots in God's country!
