This caught my eye in this morning's paper, not only because it was an interesting story, but the son-in-law once took me on a tour of Montana Rail Link's engine rebuild center in Livingston. His son died in his twenties while sailing to Hawaii. (I knew him in college). And his wife died a few years ago. She couldn't have been very old. I guess it just struck me because of the unexpected connection and the tragedy the son-in-law has been through. Mayhew "Bo" Foster, a World War II Army pilot who transported the one-time heir to Adolf Hitler for interrogation in an unarmed, unescorted plane, has died. He was 99. Foster died Monday night in a Missoula nursing home, son-in-law Roy Korkalo said Tuesday. A cause of death was not immediately given. |

Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.
