Gerry, 

Can I publish Ben's address locally?  I'm sure people would respond.

This is an extreme winter state. Folks around here have so much winter clothing and there's always a surplus.  Folks around here also love to give to good causes.  I can do it without disclosing Ben's name if you want, but could give the option of people just sending their own packages.  Whatcha think?

Women around here love to bake cookies and sweetbreads, too.

Lemme know.  (I love you, too.)

Cynth

P.S. 

Also, for anyone who does this, extreme cold weather requires good hats, gloves or mittens, and socks.  Especially winter hats that cover ears well.  Tightly knitted is best.
