Where's the Screech?
The following is my email to family members of Team Sweetwater:
I received a quickie call from the boys yesterday. They're back in Pond Inlet, and doing well.
I'll get an update tomorrow, unless of course one of us has already been contacted.
I'm sure they're probably looking for a decent pub as we speak - and a shower, of course. Not necessarily in that order.
Regards,
Mark Prator







Hi Mark,
Good to hear they're safely back in pond and that you've weathered Fay (no pun intended) okay.
I assume they're coming back through Ottawa on their way home so if they need accommodations, transport, etc, please let them know that we're happy to help out. Have them get in touch with their travel details and I'll try to arrange things on this end.
cheers,
Tom

For those of you who are wondering about the "Screech".
It is a little bit of Jamaican sunshine imported to Newfoundland.
Its warm and its sweet and makes one complete on those chilly wet days.

Looking forward to seeing the pics.

Circumstances led me today to wonder what had become of my former colleague Alain Cormier... I can't say I'm surprised to find out that this is what he's up to, but I am impressed, and I congratulate him and the team on their accomplishment.
Cheers!
Joe

Great to hear from Tim today. This has been a fun trip to participate in through cyberspace, I am sure it was an awesome trip to have been on virtually. Thanks Mark for being our go to person along the way. Mike from Nashville

Hey Russell et al! Glad to hear you're back safe in the land of beer and I scream... or is that Screech? Here's to warmer climbs ahead... which I'm sure Claudia is looking forward to! Best regards, David
