OH !
I forgot to mention that I had compassion on these local guys because they remembered me from @ 15 years ago when they were kids. They remembered when I used to have long hair and a beard and was always helping people down there. One of the guys said they used to call me that Santa Clause guy, because I was so nice. Another one of them remembered me because I used to go to the springs with chocolate orange balls. I used to buy them at Trader Joe's and you had to hit these chocolate orange balls really hard on the rocks to make the orange slices seperate. Their recollections made me smile inside and reflect on those good ole days.
So, in the back of my head I gave them some slack. O K !
NO MORE mister nice guy. ;~)
