Pretty little fish. These days, a lot of folks' "dream trips" seem to
involve very faraway places: NZ, Patagonia, Mongolia, the Seychelles,
etc., but the U.P. remains near the top of my list. Must be the
influence of Traver (and maybe the Nick Adams stories.....).

Thanks for the report.

At one point in the planning, we specifically had Traver/Voelker and Nick
Adams on the clave agenda- Voelker's pond and the Fox....

That this hoped for event failed to take place as planned is entirely my
fault. Even in the early planning stages, meeting George at one end of the
U.P. on Thursday and you near the other end on the following day caused me
some vague uneasiness, but I shunted it aside in my eagerness, and for this
I offer my sincere apology. I won't bore you again with our rationale for
reneging. After three years of abortive efforts to get together in da Yoop,
it's about time we made it happen. NEXT time we make a rock solid and
ironclad plan with a "horrible, lingering death for deviation" clause!
