Don sent this update on their adventures. However, I did not know and was saddened to hear that Dick Martin passed away from a heart attack in May.


Larry, recently, Dee and I made a tour visiting several of our Winter Texas friends. We first stopped in Spirit Lake, Iowa and visited with Doris Martin. Doris says she will be at Kontiki again next winter. From there, we traveled to Greendale, Wisconsin (a suburb of Milwaukee), and spent a few days with Dick and Roberta Waddel. Dick got me out on Lake Michigan and helped me land 16 salmon over a period of three days. We then traveled to visit Joyce Humphreys in Hackensack, Minnesota. She lives on beautiful Woman Lake and her son owns a resort on the same lake. Our last stop was in Bismarck, North Dakota to see Chuck and Lila Krueger and Chuck gave us a tour of Bismark. The flooding there is heartbreaking. We ended up in North Platte, Nebraska for a family reunion. We had other friends we wanted to visit, but were just too pressed for time.
