I am the lucky giftee of Santa Skully. In addition to a space blanket I received 'wild' by Cheryl Strayed, a memoir of a woman's journey on the PCT.
The book is ending too soon. It will not last until christmas.
Thank you Skully!

Right on. I was hoping it was good. She's got a great name for hiking, huh? The space blanket was just in case it wasn't that great. Plus it's a great item to have on a long route.
I hope you have a great Solstice and Next year's even better.
So there!;-)

My helper elf has been a bit overworked as of late, but fear not, mine should be in be mail in a few days, and seeing as it only has to go a few counties over, should arrive by Christmas....
Hope the holidaze are treating you a well...

I thought that i would throw this out there again.
Last year quite few people gave money to buy Strider a gift.
Some people sent a little, and some a lot. We collected quite a bit, and I believe we gave him a rope, one or two books, and a Dream Catcher.
The gift suggestions and money were sent to me, and then I ordered the stuff, and sent it to Strider.
I would like to do this again this year.
I have had a few people respond, but not enough to buy Strider that timeshare in Hawaii.
Please contact me off site if interested

hey there say, zip...
i never have more than a few bucks in the bank after normal bills, food and critters stuff, and my ol' quarter-tank fill, so i can't really send funds as they are unpredictable, though i DO get surprise babysitting time and thus, i CAN send SMALL gifts, etc, as i balance and plan, and on occasions, beg postage, :))...
sooo, though:
i can at least send him a neat surprise, :)
and i have a few ideas... but--will be for the new year,
:)
it's kind of like including a big brother, :)
as he sets this up for 'the ol' taco family'...
:)
