Thanks for your letter and pics.

Dear Glenn,

 

First of all Drew and I wish to thank you very much for the grand opportunity you allowed us to visit and hunt Cumberland..we have had an experience we will remember for a life time...What a wonderful place..I keep telling family and friends what it was like but I fail to describr every detail that comes back to mind.

 

After you had left the island, Drew, Bill and I went to Plumb orchard camp to cut up the hog Rich had shot..as we were passing the "airport" a "HUGE" black and brown boar hog with very noticeable tusks lesirely walked across the road right i9n front of us...he obviouysly knew he was in a safe zone...but boy what a beast he was...we also spent some time seeing Dungeness by the day lihgt..Drew had not had that opportunity due to his fishing that day...we packed up the next day and had a good road trip home by 4;00 pm Friday the 16th... now that I am home I have been busy non‑stop with chores...rentals...work and the little house I am fixing up currently.. tomorrow I will be puuting a new front porch on it with 2 windows a new door, siding, lights ect...I wish to have it ready to rent out by the end of the month.

 

Your license plate is in the mail...it was rusted on .. I had to drill out the bolts and make some small cuts to get it off.

 

In one of your emails you mentioned a letter " cumberland 04"...I have not read that..can you forward me a copy?\

 

Aubrey takes hunters saftey class on Feb 10th‑12 at the local community college...then she will be " legal".

 

Well I must go now to pick up Drew from Fly Tying Club.

 

I will Send the other pictures as I load them.

 

Thanks again.

Tom, Sherri and Gang.
