Jim,
At least twice now the LUG saloon has reached out to our beloved saloon
keeper to thank him for keeping this wonderful community around.  Both times
a significant amount of money was raised voluntarily.  Now one of our
favorite family members is in trouble; when it is family you help so I
believe that we will once again raise a significant dollar amount just
because.
