Return to Dürkheim - 2004
Ned Crislip and Wendell Lauth organized a third trip to Bad Dürkheim in the summer of 2004. A number of video clips were taken during that visit. Lee Wise was asked to review that trip at the 16th Biennial Reunion, in Paintsville, Kentucky, July, 2013. Presented here are the slides presented at that reunion.
