Re: I need your advice

J.J.:

Anytime you want to endure a field trip in the Western U.S., let me hear and
we will talk. There's always room for a beady-eyed expert. You would enjoy
the
spacious vistas and probably even find something.
In the anticipating interim, we will include you in our customary Tucson
toast for the
friends who can't yet make landfall. No one has to tell a rockman he only
lives once....

Regards,

Edward Hennessey
