Lloyd,
Please remember, the naysayers hadn’t spent the day with us in the woods, with our kids, and weren’t there for Ron’s expert prep or grilling over coal. They didn’t savor the wine (beer) or the rest of the meal, or the company of your kin and the other guests on that wonderful, autumn evening. That meal was, perhaps the highlight of that trip. We didn’t have to harass the kids to eat their dinner, and my dog knew right who to lay down next to at the table. It was a pleasure meeting your brother, and having adult beaverges with him at dinner, and, after. Fine folk.
To say I’d do it again in a heartbeat is an understatement. Please don’t misplace that recipe of Ron’s.

Best,
Ted
