Yeah, where is that rascal hiding these days?
Bear, I know you're out there. I can hear you breathing. Don't make me go out and get Jenn.........

Riot, Betsey, riot!
Jim says, "We probably won't hear anything from Bear until the spring thaw. Unless he headed south for the winter, where in California it is just like summer."
Sometimes I wonder about that man of mine....

Hi, Bear.
Wondered how much poking it would take to wake you up. (Yeah, Betsey-we were told as kids not to poke the bear. But then, when did kids ever listen to their folks?)
Whidbey Island, huh? Sounds like a dream. I've often passed small island communities and wondered how much fun it would be to live there. Even though I was raised in Oakland (anything but a small town), we had a small town sense of community in our area. Everybody knew everyone within a five block radius, all the kids played together, all the parents kept a eye out on us kids-not just their own, we had block party pot-lucks, everyone went to each others' christenings, weddings, funerals... I miss that, even with the inevitable gossip that is so much a part of small town life.
So I hope you get that scouting job. I hope you've found a home in Whidbey. You have a lot to offer all those future rangers. Go for it!
Now Southern California isn't so bad. The deserts and high mountains are gorgeous. Lots of space to get lost in (or dump a body, but that's another story). Only problem is the megalopolis sprawl, but you get that in any high density living area.
That being said, I'd rather live along the northern coast with just enough neighbors for friendship and mutual security. A cottage by the sea....at today's prices, dream on girl.
As for what my hubby does to make me wonder....ain't tell'n ya, tee-hee!
And your lady friend with the breathing problem...Breath Right nose strips might help. (gotcha!)
Nice to have you back, Bear.
Camp on,
Sue

Bear,
Oh hey. I just got done reading a interesting book about Catalina flying boats in WWII. Had a nice section on Whidbey Island in there. The patrol unit in the book had been stationed there for awhile. It was neat, had a bunch of old photos of the layout back then and everything.

Bear,
Oh, you must make it over to the museum then. I have been standing by Cats before but never had a opportunity to poke my head inside of one. The layout of them fascinates me.
If you get a chance read some of Martin Caidin's books he talks in some (not sure off the top of my head which) about a journey he made in one back in '86. Great stuff.
