Word from Bill

[netmouse]

murphyw just called, first I'd heard from him since last Monday. He's in Monson and he got my package, and he's looking forward to the all-you-can-eat dinner because he missed the food drop which was supposed to resupply him halfway through the 100-mile wilderness - just was looking for a bridge at a logging road and realized later he'd passed a logging road near a bridge and he decided not to turn back, he says. So I guess he got pretty hungry near the end, but I'll hear more about it when he calls again this evening after the all-you-can-eat dinner.

I had said that I didn't expect to hear from him for at least ten days and I would not officially start worrying until Saturday, but I'm awful glad to hear from him today.
