I miss my music collection. I miss having a bathroom and a kitchen. I miss the multiculturalisms of city life. I miss my bike. Time is flyin' by, and I'll be rolling back east in no time. Family and friends, familiar surroundings. Maybe I'll get out to Vancouver Island while I'm in the neighbourhood. Planting in B.C. next week.

Sorry to everyone I haven't had time to reply to. Thanks for writing to me. See ya when I see ya.

I'll try this again
Hi Charlie, Sounds like you are getting the hang of it. I loved the Shellagh story. What not to do when checking things out. All is well in this neck of the woods. This neck of the woods, being that there are lots of old trees and not a lot of blocks in the immediate vision. The weather has been unseasonallly rainy and cool, so am wondering what it has been like to be out in the woods with the 'squites and black flies. It is supposed to warm up this week, tho', so hopefully you are surviving the climate conditions. Hard to believe that you are almost finished for the season. I hope you do take the time to come back this way on your way to Vancouver Island before you head back to the East. Take care, Charlie. Love Aunt Cogi

The Iconic Summer Job
The cover story of today's Toronto Star profiles tree planting and in particular planter's in Northern Ontario. The author let's his readers know that without a doubt your job is "one of the hardest jobs in Canada" and while the tools and planting methods have improved the experience has remained unchanged for basically the past 30 years. While your Dad and I have delighted in following your escapades this article helped us to better appreciate just what you've accomplished. Charlie thanks for playing a role in ensuring that wood remains a renewable resource. P.S. We'll keep the article for you.
