Originally uploaded by cpikas.

I believe one of Nick Belkin’s promises last year was to not have chicken. Sure enough, we had salmon. The jury’s out on that; however, the desert was fabulous. Don’t you wish you were here.

I do want to say thank you, Marcia, and others who blazed trails and who are still working to bring attention to the problems.
