thanks robh. i'm not egotistic enough to think he would remember me but, who knows? i would appreciate anything you can do to help me reconnect with bob. we played a lot of parties, usually sharing one guitar, passing it back and forth. mutual friends were bob schmoll, al cheko, and zena bathune. i was class of '59 in keewatin, minnesota. he is two months younger and attended hibbing hs.
