Perhaps warmer weather is very near. I might take Thursday off to
tap trees as they are calling for + temperatures for a few days. We
should warn people that if they attend the Spring Warm-up, they run
the risk of winning the grand prize, which means the MUST run all the
races...

Even if the weather is cool, i'll have a bonfire going that should
warm the Creestock area. Many year ago I billeted 4 rugby players
from the University of Dundee in Scotland. We were standing mid-
river (that was as close as we could get to the bonfire) and one of
them asked me if we were going to die. Appararently bonfires in
Scotland don't usually have 30 foot flames...

Think warm weather!
