The Monk-Librarian (that's only part of his Trail-name) walked all but the
western two hundred miles of the TCT (Trans-Canada Trail) several years ago.
He'd have finished, but the Canadian Mounties came looking for him and
pulled him off the trail. They always get their man. Seems he'd applied
for a job with Canadian Customs and they decided they wanted him. And the
magic word was - NOW. <VBG>
Walk softly,
Jim
