IF you pack like every other Southern Belle I know, (She Who Must Be Obeyed included), and carry hundreds of rolls of film, and equipment in which to use it, along with the 'Skeeter Dope' and other necessities to the wilds of wherever you go, just how many porters do you have to take with you....? :o)~ When I see your name, I get a flash of the expeditions you see in the old Johnny Weissmuller 'Tarzan' movies! I see an image of you in a pith helmet, in the lead, carrying a Leica instead of a Weatherby! Dan (Ya gotta remember- It's Saturday!)
