    Where are you located in Wisconsin? If you are within traveling distance of Rochester MN you would be welcome to come to my place where you could play with several more coticules, as well as a couple of Zulus, and a few other hones.

    Thank you for the kind offer. I tried to PM you, but your inbox is full. As much as I could use some help, my current schedule won't let me get away. If the offer stands, February may work.

    I did another PM purge so there is room in my PM box again.
    I do have some plans for the middle of February but hopefully we can work it out. Also, watch for other Minnesota and Wisconsin meet-ups.

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Jimmy it's funny how many more times you have shown that photo than I have! I guess the pile would be at least double that now, but I'm not going to risk stacking them!

    I've never met a coticule I didn't like.
