Here is what I found: "Like the one about Berlin industrialist Klaus Groenke, who has a sprawling estate on the corner of the Hope Peninsula, across the lake from Sandpoint. Groenke bought 150 acres here in 1984 and built a proper compound. A slab of the Berlin Wall marks the entrance to his property and is a popular attraction for visitors. " I will have to let him know.

Our trip started almost two months ago with visiting some friends in Sandpoint, ID. He took us on a trip through the woods to a secluded place on the lake and showed us a piece of the Berlin Wall. I guess the German chancellor owns a big piece of property there with what is suppose to be a grand house, which you cannot see from the road. Anyway, he brought this piece of the wall and it is on display just outside the gate to his property. Out in the middle of nowhere. My wife and I standing by the piece of the wall. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Aram/misc/m/Piece+of+Berlin+Wall-3746.jpg.html Comments welcome Aram Aram Langhans (Semi) Retired Science Teacher & Unemployed photographer ?The Human Genome Project has proved Darwin more right than Darwin himself would ever have dared dream.?
