I finally have returned home about 11pm last night. Billy Click dropped
me off in Georgetown, Tx and wif'ee picked me up knowing that I had
spent a few bucks that I shouldn't have. Guess that means I'm still
married!
I think overall that everything went very well especially since Duluth
itself is removed from the sponsoring group by distance. I haven't
spent a winter in the midwest for a long time but I wonder how folks
handle all those steep hills in the ice and snow of a Duluth Winter!
The Minneapolis guys took really good care of us--thanks again.
