    I just came home from "O"Town. What an insane place. Every time I go back to my hometown, I am amazed that I am still alive today. The pics are from the Union Station and 25th Street. I recall many a fist fight in these parts. Oh, the good old days where you could get your ass kicked and still look good a couple days later: A little cut and pasted verbiage on the history--

    Although Ogden began in 1850 as a religious Mormon community, with the completion of the Union Station the world came into Ogden. On 25th Street, near the train station, one could witness gambling, prostitution, narcotics sales, robbery, rape, and even murder. Ogden grew and became a rough city. Crime boss Al Capone commented in the 1920s that Ogden was too wild a town for him.

    OK, I see the package is on it's way to Roham, then Drew and then on to me. On July the 29th, I'm on my way to Moncton, New Brunswick to spend a few days with my dad for his 70th birthday. I'll be back in town Saturday, August 05th.

    Depending on what happens, it may get to me before vacation, but it may not. I'd like to stay in the pass, but if there's a week delay due to my absence and anyone has an issue with that, I will back out rather than have this box travel back and forth across the border. If I stay in, it would probably work best if Drew put it in the mail to me on July 31st. That way it'll be here waiting for me when I return, and I can get it mailed from Detroit to BKC on August 07th and he'd have it by the 10th.

    What say ye??
