Wife Beverly died this morning.

Grab your bear can or camp chair, kick your feet up and chew the fat about anything Sierra Nevada related that doesn't quite fit in any of the other forums. Within reason, (and the HST rules and guidelines) this is also an anything goes forum. Tell stories, discuss wilderness issues, music, or whatever else the High Sierra stirs up in your mind.

All words seem so inadequate at times like this. My condolences. Since my mother died of cancer, a donation to the ACS has been a part of our yearly contributions.
