Thanks to SNAP and the AACC mamy of us have souvenirs from days in the month when it would have been impractical to get out and make a find. Perhaps that is why the local area threw such a big birthday bash in your honor on the 31st. I started to get to know you in August. I am hoping I made a friend.
