 Hi Ed,
   Thanks for the forward. 
We are so happy to have met Jereen. Thank you again for dinner ! YUM . 
I hope you enjoyed your fish. 

  On the Red Moose note >
 Bill and Mary Margret , The new owners seem to have become victims by choice . 
They didn't seem to want to consider the new neighbors or the County they just 
had tents and people all over next to the Buttes Resort . ( after becoming trail 
angels they just got in too deep without a plan ) Any way I hope it works out 
for the other businesses whom have been very supportive of PCT hikers before 
these new folks showed up .
 People who start saying that they are not welcome maybe didn't come last year 
and don't know the difference.
  They seem like nice people but they may not get the "manners" part of 
community yet.

   You know how it is , you gotta be careful of choosing causes without all the 
info .!
     Love and Hugs ,
          Mary and Family
