Hi Sheila,

Your correct about your description of winter in Duluth.  The summers are
spectacular, even with the Minnesota Bird being a Mosquito......  *evil
grin*   I was speaking from my childhood memories..........sliding down Lake
Street to school in the ice troughs made by the wheels of the cars, my hair
frozen solid in the DA style of the 50's cause I wouldn't wear a hat to mess
it up.  Ha!   Now Duluth has one of the best snow removals there is, I
believe.  Really looking forward to visiting all the ole sights and hope I
will find time to see your lab. (if your position is still open then, I
might even cut a few blocks for ya)   "Ya Sure Ya Bettcha"!!!!   "Uff Dah"
:)

Your lucky to be so young that this won't be your reunion, and I'll send the
contact phone number for your co-worker via private mail.

Good luck in your recruitment....so many job openings in Histology!

Don Hammer, Retired Guy
