oh COMEON Jonce. I'm up here in Grand Rapids hiding just outside the camp
ground before making my appearance tommorow. I just drove something like 10
hours (from Pittsburgh, but up through erie, and some side trips). The rain
hasn't stopped me yet.....
Get a coat and some boots, and stop on by. I just made my way through Ann
Arbor to here......
It wasn't too far. : )
I hope you guys all have a wonderful weekend.
