Thank you for asking- YES! Wow! They were large and classic. The good thing is, they will provide a measure of toughness, sorely needed, as I have been away from the trail rigors for (apparently) far too long.
I leave for the Sierra mountains, sometime tomorrow, or early Friday morning.
I have a job working at a resort, akin to a utility baseball player... basically, doing whatever the boss wants me to do, whether it’s dishwashing, carpenter work, shuttle driver, mailman, or boat captain. I will stay through the rustic resort’s closing in October. Leaving the broiling desert, and none too soon.
I will have to return to AZ, if I don’t get my ballot in the mail soon enough, to vote AGAINST John McCain. This- I relish.
Sounds like an ideal summer job—in the mountains.
Hope they have internet so we can keep in touch with you.
Will you be able to keep in touch with us?
