I was at that Pennsic. I remember hearing about the
outage and thinking how glad I was that I was at Pennsic
and not at home. I'm a mountain camping girl at heart,
but after living on the east coast for a few years, you
forget what silence is.
On the cooking/relief front: How many of us have multiple
copies of the same cookbooks? Maybe we can get a running
tally together of "available" books to help replace some
of the destroyed collections from our folks. I think I
have 2 copies of Sabina...Must look. Might make a good
Thanksgiving idea.
