Just found out today that the Surgery will take several hours. So I thought, why let my mind pick its dreams randomly - you ever notice how you can sometimes "encourage" the type of dream you want by thinking about something before you go to sleep? Well, here is my official Woodsy Dream List!

An Analysis
Here is a good example of – Face your fears and live your dreams. It also prompts wonder that with all the playing and getting lost, when was there ever time to work and savor burnt squirrel. These dreams also point out that memories can never be taken away, for they will always be with us. For those who have yet to meet this hoot in person – face the fear of having to use the emergency kit and live the dream of a lifetime on a Woodsy’s Delight trail ride.
Thanks for the memories you have created,
Young Ted
