KiotiJohn

DIRTCUTTER · Jun 7, 2007

On vacation in Costa Rica we visted the Poas Volcano near San Jose. While shopping I ask the store owner to use the bathroom, on the wall someone wrote KiotiJohn was here. I asked the store owner if he had any idea who put it there. He said a man who is an American and knows a lot about tractors.

small world. But, I wouldn't put my name on the bathroom wall.

What do ya think the odds are of another Kioti owner finding that? He must have been there often for the store owner to know about him.

So John is living in a bathroom in Costa Rica? That explains the lack of internet access.

I second that TractorLegend. In fact, Norway's my favorite country (and I've been to more countries than states in the U.S.). Fond memories of hiking in the mountains, visiting Thor Heyerdahl's Kon Tiki & the Viking ships, the old ski & military museums and barbecuing moose steaks in the country. Fjords are an amazing sight from the mountain tops.
I spent many a pleasant evening drinking (really expensive) beers in the beer gardens surrounded by breathtakingly beautiful blondes & redheads. Great soft ice cream served on freshly made waffle cones. People are very friendly and speak English. They've got good public transportation - easy to get around. People can bring their dogs to work & to restaurants too. Make sure you go in the Spring when the sun stays out all day & night.

Thanks for the trip down memory lane. I wanna go back!

I never met John in person, but I do know that he spent a lot of time trying to help others after going through great personal hardship. We don't know how his TBN handle got on that bathroom wall, but we sure know how his name got written here on the internet wall. I, for one, don't have a clue what is to be gained by that.
