Also, a couple of notes about photo walks, etc.:
If anyone has any ideas for a photowalk, let me know and I'll organize it.
Sometime in October, I think I'll be going on an elk viewing trip some Saturday up to...you
guessed it, Elk County. If you're interested in joining, let me know. It'll involve a very early
start in order to be up there by dawn, plus some side trips to other places in that area. We
wouldn't get back until later in the day (though, of course, if you drove yourself you could
come back whenever).
David Silber, President
