Yea, suure, ya betcha. I was invited over to my cousin's house last nite for supper, hotdish and jell-o, don't ya know. One of the dinner conversation topics was about this eleven tousan mile biker my cousin's, the V. Reichelts met while camping at Itaska State Park. He was such a nice, interesting young man ya know. The Reichelt's don't own a computer so I wrote down John's web address from the calling card he handed to them, just to see what his sight is all about ya know. For sure, will have to come back later and read about your interesting travels and experiences ya know. We Minnesootans wish you fun and safe travels. And invite you to one day bike extreme northern minnesota, next to the Canadian border, this is where we call home you know. It is truly God's country up here! Da mosquito's, moose and bear all agree. Ufda
