I met John Francis about four years ago in West Cape May. I was doing some front yard work on my family's summer home, and John walked by, introduced himself, and we chatted for a short time. He alluded to his walking history but didn't make a big deal of it. Nice guy.

I cannot answer your question, but here's a thought. I guess you've noticed that there isn't much activity on this site nowadays. Very few of us are checking in. However, starting in 2007 people added many comments for several years. If I were looking for the info that you are, I'd start at the beginning of the guest book and just go forward. Someone may have mentioned the Scouts in a recollection story; that person might be able to help you. Good luck.

Hello everyone - hope all are safe. Lent is coming to a close. Does anyone still keep Friday meatless? I still do, I love seafood, so not a hardship. I treat myself to smoked salmon for breakfast. Also I know people who do not eat meat 24/7 - fashionable since the 80's. Even more restrictive, I have vegan friends - that lifestyle even restricts clothing!!!! (for those who do not know: no silk, no wool, no feathers, no leather). Now that is hard.

Wishing everyone a safe, Happy Easter.
