Day 674: Quest Chapter 17

Another chapter complete!  It didn't take long to revise and edit the chapter on the expenses involved in running a backpacking expedition and how to determine the fees charged to students.  I also included a discussion on alternative sources of funding and whether an expedition leader should be paid.  Tomorrow, I will review it one more time and then select another chapter to target.

On our walk through the cemetery today, we examined the headstones of Steve's ancestors and found the stone of the first relative to settle in Fredonia in 1821, Ervin Osborne.  He doesn't know how everyone is connected so I will have to get Mary to draw a family tree for me and trace all the relationships.
