'The News from Lake Wobegon'

Duane Bunsen left to drive to Alaska with two pals. He picked out a '73 Ford Fairlane from Bunsen Motors that had been driven very slowly by an old couple. The car had spent its life chugging to town. Duane is probably driving straight through to Seattle, following in the tracks of many people who headed west from LW. In 1743, Father Plaisir and a band of French voyageurs ran off to the west, chased by clouds of mosquitoes. The Indians helped them to head back east. When he was 11, GK drove west to a bible conference with Uncle Earl and Aunt Eloise and two cousins. His aunt let him sit in the front seat and gave him sandwiches of his choice. After two days, they saw the Rockies. Take it easy, Duane
