I did a lot of painting."

Switchback, you painted my tent stakes a couple of years ago.  I am VERY 
HAPPY with them, as we have been out in some crummy, dark, weather this 
summer, and I didn't lose any of them -- fully due to the fact that they are 
colored bright orange!

I will be hiking the PCT in 2008, and I have a new name.  It used to be 
"Lindy, north of Seattle", but I have been named "Butterfly" for the trail, 
for many reasons, one of which is that I usually flit from side to side to 
look at everything along the trail.  I don't think I'll have time for that 
next year.

I look forward to seeing you and the rest of the hiker friends at the next 
ALDHA-West Gathering, though.  I hope I will have completed the trail by 
then!

Butterfly :-)
