Final Words
"lamina"

- I was a little surprised by Terry's decision. I would have never voted for Terry but he has got to play his game. I know he did what he felt he had to do. I respect that and I wish them all the best. This was a wonderful adventure. I loved every day out here. Thank you to my family for letting dad go off on another adventure.
