[pct-l] Open Letter to Paradise Cafe

[ron guay]

"Dear Hiker Trash...I mean Sir,

Look, there are Trail Angels and then there are businesses.  We are a
business.  We have only agreed to continue this service because we aren't
sure how it will impact our bottom line.  Maybe the locals are Hiker Trash
friendly, or maybe hikers will represent a small, but solid portion of our
business in the future (I hear they have section hikers around these
parts...<spits>).  In any case, we welcome your business, but I cannot allow
this place to be used as a transfer station by drug smuggling mules.  I
don't trust you.   I know...I know...I've heard there are lots of crazy
Trail Angels out there that feed, board, and transport you smelly homeless
types...etc...but again...You'all need to understand...we run a
business..either mail us your package or SEND IT TO WARNER SPRINGS AND/OR
IDYLWILD."
