Thanks for finding my laptop

Thursday AM
Some days I still question my move to Ketchikan - when I miss
going to Wal-mart at 2 AM or having a good coffeehouse that stays
open to midnight. I've never lived in a town this small before.
Then there are days when I really enjoy the family-like atmosphere
in Ketchikan.
Today was one of the latter days. My laptop fell off my wheelchair
tonight (Nov 7) across from the Federal Building and I didn't
realize it till 30 minutes later. As I raced back, I saw a younger
man walking around with it trying to find its owner. He wouldn't
take a reward. I asked his name and thanked him profusely. I'd
rather have lost my wallet with $2000 than my laptop.
If anyone knows "Gary", please tell him to drop by
the SAIL office at the corner of Dock and Bawden. I'd love to
buy him a coffee and cinnamon roll at Refiner's Roast or Polar
Treats.
And I'll remember what happened tonight each time I miss shopping
at Wal-mart at 2 AM. :c) No matter what, Ketchikan is my home
now...
