Shasta Lake Lantern Light Up Honoring Doug Hodder

[cdfnchico]

Been thinking about how we could recognize Doug and his contributions to the teardrop world that influenced so many of us at our upcoming gathering. Decided a lantern light up would be an appropriate tribute. So, bring your lanterns and we'll light them up for Doug... after we get so bright he'll be able to see them! we'll dim them one by one and leave a single lantern burning for Doug. If you'd like to participate from afar, light a lantern Friday, April 27th at dusk.




PS. I'd love a more adept Coleman aficionado to head this up. PM me if you are interested!

Totally rained out our Memorial, but several folks led by Dave, lit a few lanterns and shared some memories of Doug. We remembered his friendship, his craftsmanship, and the way he was always the guy who came up with "the next big thing"! The teardrop world is a little tamer without his presence! He will be sorely missed. Finally, each lanterns was extinguished one by one, until just a single lantern remained for Doug.
