You know......there is nothing to say that you couldn't have your own Ruck!
That was the original idea ....that hikers gather all over the country to teach

there couldn't be a CA Ruck and a CO Ruck for folks that aren't able to
join us in PA!  Hey....maybe we could keep in e-contact and have a cyber
Ruck!!  Anyone coming with a laptop and a c-phone thingie? <g>
