Seems that getting some folks around here to accept surplus gratitude is harder than a Whiteshirt's heart........... Indy Outdoorman and his son saved my azz at the Hog killing. In my focus to get on the road and ensure my partners in crime were set, I left my pack/contents. Gregg and his son grabbed it for me and sent it back to NH. Pugs was invaluable in arranging the swap. Steve, once again, put forth the labor necessary for us all to gather. I truly wish that you would let some of us slouched help more. It seems like all I accomplish is hiking, eating (Dan!), drinking and laughing.

Good people here George for the most part. At least the ones that get out and actually meet other members.

To all the folks who I have had the fortune to meet.........I am richer by far for the experience. To have lawyers as diverse (each of a higher standard than many) engage in discussion/argument in a good natured manner is, generally, outside my zone.
Scott, Pat and those unable to attend.........hope to see you at some point. Pat, Connor keeps mentioning "that Texas whiteshirt you talk about".......something about fishing.
To the DB (probably those initials are open to interpretation)......once again an outstanding year. Jim/Bill, thanks for the company and stories.
Finally, and some will likely believe this reinforces their agendas, the cop contingent forced me to focus on some personal schit that's been brewing. CT, your perspective (though you likely have no idea) as one who has seen the tunnel through has been immensely beneficial.

Hey George, don't feel like the Lone Ranger. If it hadn't been for the trifecta of Pugs, Greg and Jake, I'd forever be without my favorite coffee/whiskey drinking utensil.
Tanglewood was good enough to send me a message and let me know that my Carhartt coat, flashlight, reading glasses and a camo ditty bag were in his possession after the mad dash to get home.
My Grandfather told me long ago that friends were worth everything.
He was right.

Friend, the fact that I have no idea is not unusual, but I saw some things in your eyes while we were marching around this year. You know you can call anytime. I'll tell you that Jim has been a great help to me, as it seems that I have run out of room to put things.

I can't agree more with George. While Inhavent met anyone face to face yet i've spoken to quite a few. Jim being one of those who has hleped, along with Pat via PM and Ed many letters allowing me to vent about some stuff.
I say a prayer for all of you fellas, even Joel...
George i'll bet you're just as mich Gokd as the rest of em

Jobs don't define a person's character. It was me who learned from you this year. I respected and appreciated it.
Bobby showed me some neat new tricks, as well.

Something to do with the bright sunshine. You haven't been to Sanibel Island have you?
