[pct-l] commentary...

I just watched Weathercarrot's cd and maybe because of the three beers I 
drank during it, I found tears slowly leaking down my face.  The music 
weaves a background to what is essentially a series of pictures of 
people interspersed with big views.  Snapshots, one after the other, and 
the persons and views are all so beautiful...

Donna is doing a good job not sinking into the fray.  Her suggestions 
make sense, and in a year, or five years, the foresight in her 
perspective will likely bear the fruit of another way of meeting.  Now 
it creates contention, but hey, the thought of change is hard, and we 
all are smart and have opinions. 

I can see a series of maybe five or six gatherings throughout the spring 
and summer in all three states celebrating the trail and hiking it.  I 
can see how gatherings can reflect the location, how it could spin off 
work crews, for example.  EAch would be unique because those who 
organize each have a different vision. 

Harking back to my college days I ask, "which one's got the most beer???"
