rik again - 05.08.08
submitter: wim rutten
location:stokkem, belgium
more than one coincidence; I saw a truck and trailer with matts,made a U-turned, followed and stopped for the picture; rik was moving again (he is on another picture of me); then today I spoke SM-MTA while being on a survey, when one of the present men asked my where I came from, and if I knew Rik (Rik being the only one in our village he knew) so i promised to submit "rik again"today; then I spoke about who's who in SM-MTA and there came a second surprise. He had a friend by the name of Robert Kershaw (married with Ginny)former officer in the US army, passioned by motorcycles. So Robert, if you read this: could it be family?

I am glad to read we share the same values of pacifism

you never know whether one is related or not. I'm neither passionate abut motorcycles (or even cars for that matter) nor is tere anyone in my immediate family in any military service. there was a confederate general Kershaw (whole county in South Carlolina named Kershaw). Also there is writer Robert J Kershaw (same middle initial as me) who writes historic military fiction. Being a pacifist myself maybe these are my alter egos.

and it is not Rik being related, it is a freind of one of his friends (army people)
