Awwww.....that's a nice thing to say Lady Ann. Regretably, I don't think a trip to much of anyplace in June or July is in the cards for Betty and I this year.....
Another "death march" is no longer daunting.....once you've done something it is easier the second time around. Besides, Rich was misled last time. He didn't know the guides were gonna say "not here...six leagues...better water" any more than we did. Now, the mention of margaritas would dam near convince me to become another American Taliban...but this year I fear no summer trips to anywhere is in the offing for Betty and I.
Woulda been lovely to see you again. Take care of that man of yours...he's a bag o' ideosyncracies ;-0, but he's a good man.
: : Yes, and if I can EVER get my shiite together and get organized, The MacLeod might have a horn to go with his rifle.......*making note to self: better to finish one thing, than to bustle around with 8 or 10 things in progress and going on all at once*. I'll work on that Lady Ann.
: My Dear Mr. Rooks:
: Far more than the powder horn, the MacLeod and I would love to see you and your lovely wife Betty at the Fifth and Final Gathering...it just wouldn't be the same without you... and I know Doc Mary would be simply devastated if you are absent! How about if I get Rich to swear on the honor of TGAT Lainey that absolutely no hundred mile Death Marches are scheduled for this year? And what about the margaritas you promised would be ready for us at the top of the falls...after the 100 mile Death March?
: Sincerely missing your presence,
: Lady Ann
