The subject of backpacking class in Brocton today was first aid. Usually Steve does the class since he has the background, but since he was tied up with stage work, I got to teach. I'm surprised how much I've learned from listening to him for years. There was no depth to my instruction, but I have plenty of stories to illustrate each topic. Tyler, MaryAnn and Maddy offered lots of encouragement and anecdotes.
The kids had lots of questions. They wanted to know what the worst injuries were and so I told them about Colin's broken collar bone and Anna's knee injury. Considering that it's been 25 years and over 2000 people have backpacked, we have been very fortunate.
We still haven't heard from Astrum Solar. The salesman called cause he had just heard what happened. Apparently, they are having a big meeting in Rochester tomorrow to discuss the case. Since they have been so uncommunicative, we suspect they are marshaling their forces and lining up their lawyers. We may be forced to accept an unpleasant solution, but it will be with great regret and reluctance. Treating us poorly will have very negative consequences for them as well. We will not be recommending them to anyone.
