<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My family and I want to thank all in the GOSA
community for the fun we have had over the last few years due to the kindness
and sharing of knowledge from GOSA members. We have enjoyed going to
Yellowstone for several years but the geyser gazer community has made our visits
even more special. There have been numerous examples but three come to
mind in particular. The first was when several gazers told us to stick
around when we were about to leave the Grotto/Riverside area of UGB - that
resulted in us seeing an incredible Fan & Mortar eruption over a Labor Day
weekend. This past summer, in response to a request on the list serve, we
received countless recommendations on options to see less well-known or "off the
beaten path" geysers and other thermal features. We ended up having a
great time seeing Pocket Basin and also Imperial and Spray geysers
along with Fairy Falls and now have a huge list of others to go see in future
years. And, while waiting to see Oblong for the first time, one gazer even
knitted a bright pink scarf for our daughter!</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We have been on the list serve for the past 2 years
and it is a great way to stay plugged into Yellowstone between our too
infrequent visits. As we enjoyed reading the latest emails this past week,
including yet another Giant eruption - someday we'll hopefully see one in person
- we realized it was high time we made it official so we have mailed in our
family membership to GOSA. We look forward to now receiving the Sput along
with continuing to interact with GOSA members online and on our future visits to
Yellowstone.</FONT></DIV>
