Hugs good bye after a family visit. Lois and Bob Morgan lived on a fishing boat for years, then homesteaded on remote land that had been logged on Kosciusko Island.  They raised their family in a simple, rustic environment. Barbara, their middle daughter, is home for a short time working on a forest service assignment reviewing karst features in a proposed timber sale. Her sister Cindy Wyatt and her family (April, Morgan and husband Eric) arrive for an overnight visit.  They live on nearby Marble Island when they are not fishing for salmon. They have breakfast with neighbors Brad Thomas and his son Christian Smart.
