Adventures of a mailman

Mail Route 17 is in the Nokomis section of Minneapolis. It's an ordinary neighborhood. But there's one man who probably knows as much about it as anybody. He's Vincent Wyckoff, and he's delivered the mail on Route 17 for more than 15 years.

Wyckoff has learned a lot about the people and their pets -- especially their pets -- and he's written about his experiences in a new book called "Beware of Cat." He spoke with MPR's Tom Crann.
