[Northkeep] OOP, OT: Critter Moving Party

[Amadeo Estevão]

Amanda,

It as my plan to come out to help today but I had forgotten that Zahava had
scheduled a Castellan work day for today, and Chase ended up having to work
from 8am until 5:30.  Please let me know if you ended up rescheduling your
critter move.
