The Trailing Edge
Happy trails.
By now you will likely have read the news which The Ed broke in his In the Air column (see Resources) this month. If not then you won’t know this is, in fact, the last issue of the New RCSD. To be candid, we really don’t know what to say, so we’ll let Dale Evans do it for us:
Some trails are happy ones,
Others are blue.It’s the way you ride the trail that counts,
Here’s a happy one for you.Happy trails to you,
Until we meet again.
Happy trails to you,
Keep smiling until then.Who cares about the clouds when we’re together?
Just sing a song, and bring the sunny weather.Happy trails to you,
Until we meet again.
It’s been a slice, folks, and we’re really sad to go. We’ll see you on the slope someday. Until then …
Get out there and fly!
