I did a little research and my friend must have been mistaken about the 
chancellor.  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.

With the Berlin Wall in the news a lot now, I was struck by my find.  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.
