Thanks for the nice vote of confidence in the CRRM staff and volunteers. I suspect, however, that management would demur on taking on the #483. The #318 took well over a year's worth of volunteer time, and we have so many on-site projects on the "to do" list that it makes my head spin. Furthermore, we are just starting on a major project to reorganize the museum displays and grounds. I'm not sure we would even have a place anywhere to put the #483.
But
do send send those few bucks you had set aside to contribute to the RGS #20 project. They will be well-spent--on the #20!
