Jack,

I recently sent a cane to Nicolette Liegon Maroulis to replace a cane I had carved for her that was stolen. (Can you believe anyone slimey enough to steal such a cane?) I had told her I would replace it for her... just be patient. Well, she was very patient for months but recently e mailed me asking about her cane? She is riding with a group of injured vets from California to the east coast. I said riding, yes riding, a hand pedaled "trike". She wanted her Eagle Head cane so I just shut everything down and carved it. She is riding with a group and is  being sponsored by some large corporations. Well, I got her cane to her a couple days prior to her leaving for the west coast. She was so very happy with her new cane..... made any effort I made seem so worthwhile. They will be leaving the west coast June 4 I think and are scheduled to ride 64 days/4000 miles. The promos said the national news will be covering them. Anyway, thought you'd like to know.
