Note:
I received the following e-mail August 4 2006 from our Editor:
"I am planning on taking the Kayak Place website down at the end of this month. I really haven't done a lot with it in a while and can't find the ambition to go in and do what needs to be done since I have other things that I need to do or that interest me more."

What a shame if we did not preserve the adept narration of  the "Big Guys" poignant 'trip of a lifetime'.  Wes sanctioned publication
on our web site and we thank him.
