Hi Ellen and Andi! Just Walter here. Wanted to say hello! We couldn't believe we didn't see you guys on the Dalton. Must have missed you somewhere along the way?? Anyway, Hope all is good! I parted ways with two of my favorite people in the world- Matt and Robin, and Klause as well today and I'm riding tearing up in my helmet. I'm on my way home to my girls and can;t wait to see them! it was such a pleasure to meet you two on your journey. Just didn't have the time to drink a little coffee or tea. If you find your way to Montana, give a call. You're welcome to hang at our place as long as you'd like. Take care you guys, hope to see you again soon! Walter
