Semi related story, from another invisible internet friend up there:

"Once a year my best client has a weekend golf tourney at one of the ski hills. This is the one day a year I play golf.

So I leave the house this morning for the 3 hour drive up to the hill, about 2 hours in my wife calls me, sounded pretty pleased with herself. It soon became clear why.

She was out walking the dog on what is called the Greenway, a rough trail alongside the river, she passes a couple going the other way, she stops looks back at them and says "Mr. Liggett?"

He in turn looks at her and says "why yes, good morning"

He and his wife were out for a walk with binocs and cameras, they are serious bird fanciers.

So my wife spends the morning walking with Phil Liggett and his wife, Phil playing with my dog and I'm in a car going the other way!

She says they are a lovely, pleasant couple. On the plus side, he told her to say hello to me and maybe he would see me next trip!"

Plus he said it rained the whole time he was at the golf tourney.
