I write to you in the greatest appreciation. Now not many folk would appreciate the gift of a 3 year old Caribou hide, smelling of the hunt, wrapped in old grain sacks and plastic, except maybe I and my friend Jon. In the greatest of greats, I happily rub my hands over the now tanned hide, softened and smoked, loosening the shedding winter coat, which emits quite a profuse array of white hairs. But better in the outside world than the inside world of my bed, as I plan on using the hide as a mattress of sorts before eventually crafting winter wear from the fine thick coat of the animal known as the 'bou. so thank you. chrit'ou, for the 'bou. thank you. When you come to visit Cortez, you will surely bed down on this cozy hide.
- Yours in perpetuity, Ben Laurie -
Thank you Jon for the gracious gift of your brains (4 of them!) and your time, and your punk. You are a dear friend (and a deer friend!)
