Many thanks for for an enthusiastic , back-bending, final 2008 pick-
up on the Deer Lake Association miles-long stretch of dear old County 
Road 62!  Your reward is knowing that the environment, and thus the 
pleasure of driving on 62, has been up-graded for nature loving 
travelers.  The enclosed pictures of your beaming faces attest to 
your happiness  at having participated in the pick-up and the 
comradeship.

Many thanks,
Joann and Paul
