29er -Kerry Mathews and wife Georgia Beth, WILL ATTEND! ! ! !  After being away for 3 years we are LOOKING forward to seeing all our friends, and meeting new ones.

Mysteriously, the lady from Buckhorn just called and accepted our reservation. We will be in site 6002. So our reservations are complete. Both places have rave reviews. Good choice. Kerry

Ron:   Beth has made reservations at Sunset Point, but "the lady who makes reservations won't be in until tomorrow" at Buckhorn. Will make them tomorow.   Beth has volunteered to make her world famous waffles if we have a group breakfast.   I am looking forward to seeing the remodeled Nimitz...

You guys are always welcome to come in. WARNING: It may cause you to start looking at/for Winnebago Tours. See you there, partner! Beth

Ron:   Thanks for picking up the slack. Not having been there for over thirty years there's no way I could organize anything as "boots on the ground" could.  Count on Beth and me coming.   Not sure what a rally on the 15th of April has to do with a rally on the 8th of May.   Pulled out the Rand...

Ned: Okay, I guess that ends that. Kerry

Ron and Shirley Maribito suggested maybe the next Forum rally be held in Texas hill country above San Antonio. At the time they got nowhere, not exactly tarred and feathered, but close. After reading about the "problems" with Moab 2011, maybe it's time to rethink the location?? Maybe some place...

Hfx_Cdn: Did you voice this same concern for lawbreakers fleeing to Canada during the Viet Nam War? So is the law the law, or what we want it to be. Don't worry, come on down, as Canada has always been one of our closest friends. Kerry

bigskymt:   My VA ID card also states "service connected" and below that "Purple Heart". That's even though I have multiple OLC's to the PH.   Hope you get it straightened out with the local VA. Kerry

bigskymt:   Everything you said was right. The VA treats all vets. All any vet has to do is show up with a DD214, just like you did with your friend, and they will be issued an ID card by mail.   However the OP was asking about an ID card with "service connected" annotated below the photo.  ...

Jeff:   Kerry and Beth Mathews have reservations at Zion. (made long time ago)   Kerry

You must take your husbands DD214, and the  ratings LETTER from the VA (actually DVA) to a VA facility. There they check everything out for accuracy. Then they take a photo of your husband, yes he has to go also. Next the VA sends the photo and information (electronically) to a major regional...

Sitting here in disbelief. Beth and I are praying for Tim's continued "recovery". We both rubbed my St. Christopher medal while thinking of you and Timbo. Try not to wear yourself out (easy said, eh). Kerry & Beth

Thanks Betty. We followed the (mis)adventures at Q. I noticed canoeing and rafting were not included in the events? Kerry & Beth Richard: Had we been on the road we would have been excused. And lying to get off jury duty is never good. (don't mean you)

Jeff: Please add Kerry & Beth Mathews to all three parks. Misssed you guys at Quartzsite. Being selected for jury duty and the sole holdout ate up the last part of January. And incredibly Beth was called for federal jury duty on a case that "may last for two months". She was finally excused...
