    jim,the 80sʔ what do you think i am, some fng <ǃ-- s:) -->ʹʹ:)ʹʹ<ǃ-- s:) --> my first trip down was in 1972, but that was rather brief and was only to mcm.and you must remember iʹve skipped a few years plus or minus a decade or so. after all, i have the dubious record of having 2 pole winters 28 years apart. i decided not to wait so long this time, might be a bit hard to pq.but since you asked….darn it, i forgot to pack my rusty axe, can you email me oneʔ
