It is with a heavy heart that I have to post this. I have searched my town and I cannot locate, in any store, shop, or back alley, a bottle of Estee Lauder "Beautiful" perfume.
I can see it now, all of you are going "Huh". Please let me explain, briefly, because the rest of the story is up to another person who frequents this forum, not to mention that my story concerning this went on for 3 weeks.
It seems that when myself and the rest of my crew happened upon Nean's place we found that the mile and and half we had hiked since our last 3 hour stop was enough for the day. Nean has a great place and we thought it would be a great way to end the day ... It was, until the next day.
There happened to be a bottle of perfume, Estee Lauder "Beautiful" in his hiker box. Unfortunately, it wasn't suppsoed to be in the hiker box and it diasappeared from Nean's place. It disappeared because it ended up in my pack the next day! I found it at lunchtime and from there, this bottle caused many a situation over a period of time.
It started a "friendly" war between two groups and supposedly exchanged packs several times ... I will admit that I was the cause of one of those "exchanges".
To make a long story short .. Nean caught up with Free and myself at Trail Days .. hot on the hunt for his "Beautiful". He found us, on Saturday morning when we were at our low due to a confrontation with Captain Morgan the night before! We were grilled about the whereabouts of the bottle and we had no answer to provide other than passing him the remains of "The Captain" as a peace offering.
I remember, from the haze, telling Nean that he should look for a package in the mail someday. But, I come to you now, with hat in hand and head bowed. I cannot find this bottle.
Nean, will a substitute do? :) For penance should I prepare for another introduction to "The Captain" at Trail Days?
I am at your mercy ... :)
