Not to mention the flip flops, and green grass in the yard, which I doubt is happening in "paradise" just yet. Jeff

He had a small day pack with him. I stopped to see if he needed help. He said he had been Bear hunting down on the river. I Asked how he did and he had a story to tell. Then I ask him if he needed help packing it up to the road. No ... he said he had the hide. I looked at him and said don't tell me it's in that day pack. "A nice apartment size rug !!!"
