A Number of Firsts!

To C&C, We noticed that the nightly "deer count" has consistently increased each night...my interpretation is that they are getting to know us...amazing that they never run in front of our car (much smarter than Okanagan deer). This trip has been a number of firsts: (1) First time we have been in a house with a "lion". (2) First time in Oregon. (3) First time at a national championship. (4) First time we have seen a goat on a coffee t-shirt. (5) First time we have met you 2... and we hope this will not be the last!! Maintain, RC
