LO's Russian Connection, Well Another Global Connection

Post by Jim O'Bryan »

One of the favorite things for people to take to other countries are the Lakewood Observer glow in the dark T-Shirt. Where inevitably they are traded or bartered for other favors, goods, services and or t-shirts. The latest trip, trade and barter was with Michael Hoffman and his trip to Russia, through the far east. He just got back and is preparing a story of his 8 month adventure. Last night he shared some of his photos...
