Details
- From California; came over with the California Company in '73/'74

- Suspects former-mayor Woodes is still running the show behind his back.
- After getting elected, his job mostly consists of interfacing with the NY co. on the town's behalf
- Has a claim he hasn't sold yet; still goes out to pan and contemplate; collects pretty rocks he finds in the river
- Ex-wife, grown kids "back east/west"
