Walt, Peggy and Gary Carson
We had a great time July 14th and 15th. As you recall, Gary is a learning disabled young man we have had since he was 12 years old. This was one of several trips we have taken Gary on in past years but this had to be right at the top of his best time list. Our guide, Bob Dye was the greatest. ..Thanks again.
