Glad you missed the hail too. We were not so lucky in Oklahoma one year Ruby got a beating in the grocery parking lot but Winnona was thankfully back at the campground where it didn't hail. Really nice that they restored the ranger station and the furniture was donated back. Will you return to tour it?Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00328866430156879312noreply@blogger.com
