Could I make that big a mistake? Yes.

When I read Patti's message, my first thought was that someone  
associated the hiker box and package and thought the package was put  
there unclaimed and meant to be shared. Even though it was unopened.

I don't know that I would have had that idea, but I might have - an  
honest mistake.
