If I win the lottery, we'll all go. Though that's unlikely since I never buy lottery tickets.

Join the crowd of those who take a stance about not winning money 'cause your bucks would comptete in impossible competition. Once in a while I decide to buy a ticket, but my mother used up our family luck when she won a car back in 1948.

lovely post. I love a good forest. sounds like we better get that lottery plan in action tho, as many are sadly threatened. I can host for the Muir Woods leg :D

Named after John "Sierra Club" Muir? I saw an exhibit on him recently - interesting feller.

Yup, I'll never win the lottery. Better chance of getting hit by an old growth tree knocked down in a lightning strike, I'm sure. AND that's assuming I make a point of hugging the OGT whenever there's a storm. TUM: Juhn Muir was quite the character. Somewhere around here I have The Essential Muir Good read.

The Truth About Tongass: Alaska's Tongass National Forest includes the greatest tracts of rain forest outside the tropics. Subsidized logging is ripping them apart.
