I have to agree 100% with Jody Schmidt. I have listened to this one over and over for man years. I had it on cassette tape. I kept making copies, because I knew the ape would eventually break.  This story starts off terrifically with the car driving to the mountains, Lois and Amy chit chatting, then the lodge; cozy and fun. This was all recorded in a studio. It is amazing the effect it has on some of us.
