There's already something in the works.

Happy Birthday, Edd! I think we counted like 21 lines in the first 500 feet of Jackson so please take it easy in there and give my boy a break.

Count me in....I don't think that we could recognize Edd enought.

We have created a email group for all that are interested in helping with awards for Edd. We are trying to keep it quiet from him for now. I do not want to have to go take the wheels off his plane but I have arranged to do so if needed. Lol. Anyway, if you are interested in helping, attending or just want to know what is going on please email me spelodiver@yahoo.com and I will add you to the list.

These are two great stories with a positive spin for a change. I also liked the comment at the end about the economic benefit.

Me to, because at the end of the day having the County commissionaires or whoever yields the power over the caves, that makes a difference in their decisions.
