Barbara Ricker, Arnie and Caroline Cary, and Bonnie Kreitler put on a fabulous lunch.

Hank Parker was involved with everything. Helping out wherever needed.

We had two musical groups. Stoker and friends performed in the afternoon. They left, but then a second group performed in the evening. These were not OH's but had reservations, heard there was going to be party, and decided to come anyway.
This group was professional level. It included Alan Bradberg (Providence with the Magnolia group) on the accordion, Andy Stuart (Enfield, NH- plays with different group) on the fiddle. There was also a brother in law who played the triangle. Foot stomping. They were terrific.
The whole thing was pretty emotional. There was a demand for a prayer before dinner, which was done by Al Koop. Then in the morning Mary Sloat, as a Quaker, led the group in silent prayer.
The weather continued to be spectacular. The weather was so good Tuesday night that half the people took mattresses from the hut and slept under the stars. Bunkrooms were much quieter.
After breakfast Chris Thayer encouraged OH to remove memorabilia. Most signs, nick knacks, etc. were gladly taken. (Peter Benson took the big Galehead sign, which Chris has assured will be returned and placed in the new hut.) Raid items were not lifted. All else was packed into boxes to be taken out by helicopter and stored for the winter.
Hot tub was to be brought in for the crew who will work to close up the new hut before snow and to bring it along as far as possible. Expected opening date is June 2, and this is reserved for OH opening party.
For probably the first time ever, the AMC sent in two helicopters to remove OH trash. These arrived about 9:00 am. They also carried in construction material for the new hut, I assume construction crew, and took out barrels of waste and other things to be removed.
Of course, don't forget Hank's remarkable skull and story.
