Alexandria is a wonderful place. My grandparents bought a summer cottage on one of the smaller lakes there several years ago and our family has been enjoying the summers there ever since. I have seen the runestone on several occasions and personally believe in its authenticity.

But don't ask me. Ask Big Ole!

Cool pic my friend!

Yes, Alexandria IS a great place, however I haven't been there in more than 15 years and I am a mere 130 miles away!

Thanks for that picture. I remember going on a summer vacation with my parents to Alexandria ('69 or '70??) and all I really remember about it was the big Viking. It's a pleasant shot of nostalgia to see him again.
