Yvonne and I are able to make it.

Thanks for the info. Let's hope they clean up after their horsies.

mike, apparently no one is claiming responsibility for the road. Neither the State nor County will own up to owning the road.

I wish I knew, furball.

Petrified Poop :rofl: Good article, btw.

So they're not going to let us in our parks, yet we're still going to pay Ranger Dick to do his thing?

It may have been destroyed by the 1939 storm.

Rev. Simon Lucas, if I recall. Perhaps he himself skipped church once a year to catch some herring. He has a stream named after him, afterall.

Foofoo, I never knew that. I'll keep that in mind.

What new name?

I'm with you there, Ben.
