Thirty seven applications. Wow! I think it's the most candidates ever. Most of them were submitted today and a bunch returned the attached information sheet that they were instructed to keep. Wonder if they ever even read the directions, expectations and dates.
Fifteen are returning veterans, if we take them all. Several are new seniors and juniors and then there are a slew of Freshmen. Two new girls from Silver Creek applied as well as one new student from Brocton. How many can the expedition absorb if there are seventy hikers? How many cook groups can we supply and will we have to expand to five hike groups? This is going to be very tough.
Paddy, our snow boy, sat on the picnic table for a couple hours enjoying our first real snow. It's feeling more like Christmas, although high temps next week will melt all the snow. CBS News even did a report tonight from Buffalo because the conditions are so unusual. The garlands are quite spectacular and the house looks better every day. Now on to the tree and wrapping presents!
