This is my 12 visit to Vietnam My current mission in Vietnam is going to the home villages of all my neices and nephews that have helped me in Vietnam In 2005 I biked from Hanoi to Saigon. Probably the greatest trip I ever experienced. I look forward to returning to Vietnam and enjoying the people and land of Vietnam. I will be staying with my former Rotary Exchange Student Trang and her husband Huan and daughter Sarah. I keep a bike at Trang's house and will be biking around Saigon on short trips.

KU Jayhawks
Kent, It is 4:15 pm on Sayurday the 24th. The big game starts at 7:00pm in a few hours. There will be 80,000 plus at the game and they are calling it Border Armegedon. We are ready for the good fight and at this time KU is ranked #2 but @1 LSU lost last night to double overtime with Arkansas. So we really are #1 going into this game. Keep your fingers crossed and i will keep you updated. I loved the lake blog, makes me homesick. Be safe from all of that intoxicating coffee! Mike
