I want to thank the "Volunteers of the Angeles National Forest" for putting on this event.

The campfire program was great.  It was fantastic to see Tom Vincent himself, in person, telling the fasinating stories of his life.

It was an added treat that Tom Vincent was there at the cabin the next day to greet the visitors who hiked on down to his cabin and invite them in for a look.  My niece came home with a piece of "gold" that Tom had laying around his place.   ;D

Good job Charles Vincent Dougherty, ah, I mean Tom Vincent...  ;D
