Yesterday Jack and Davis made it to Winchester, Idaho. The tough part
of the day was climbing the "Old Winchester Grade" out of a small town
named Culdesac. These 13 miles took two hours to cover with much time
spent grinding away in low gear at 4 miles per hour.

In the evening the Ride For Jim crew met four cyclists from
Sacramento: Dave Spencer, Rex Sager, Gary Hodges, and Dave Howard.
This group of guys is on the road from Portland, Oregon to Whitefish,
Montana.

Another highlight was meeting Ernie Steckman who explained the
historical relevence of the town - it is the home of the famous
Winchester rifle.

Jack,
There was a nice article in today's Richmond paper. I am going to send your link to the dental students and faculty. I will enjoy watching your progress. This is a very nice thing you are doing. It especially nice to spend time with your son and friends. Ellen
