RE: UP 3985 Cheyenne-Houston and return trip for May an

Thanks for that heads up! As part of the state's ETV (Nebraska) beg for funds telethon last week, they included an hour long program on 3985. Good interviews with Steve Lee, Lynn Nystrom, crew members, and lots of footage of 3985 crossing Nebraska. Three guesses where I'll be on 6/27
