Jim Shulman Bryn Mawr, PA -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+jshul=comcast.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+jshul=comcast.net@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Daniel Ridings Sent: Monday, March 20, 2006 2:05 PM To: lug@leica-users.org; MUGers@yahoogroups.com; rolleiusers@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Leica] Remember when ...? Remember when the kids were young and we could pack them into the back-seat and head out on a little field trip? Ewa, my wife, and I got a little sentimental. We gave them 20 minutes warning (in order to save their games etc) and then an order to pack themselves into the backseat of the Renault Clio. Now a Clio isn't big. We quit buying big cars because we rarely made a long trip all five at the same time. It's a little car ... and the kiddies are no longer little runts. They're 20, 18 and 16. But they have enough sense not to fight with us when they know we're serious. So they packed in. Really needed that 20 on the M3 ... but the 35 had to do today. I just had to take three shots to take them all in: http://www.dlridings.se/gallery/v/shoebox/2006v12/06v12-0003.jpg.html Sure, it's cramped ... but "yes", "you have to have a seatbelt" (actually, we didn't need to point that out): http://www.dlridings.se/gallery/v/shoebox/2006v12/06v12-0001.jpg.html Rebecca is the youngest, so her big brothers make her sit in the middle: http://www.dlridings.se/gallery/v/shoebox/2006v12/06v12-0002.jpg.html Then off we went and surprized them with an excellent Sunday dinner at a decent restaurant (not too far away ... they were kind of cramped). M3, 35/2.0 Summicron and 400TX. Daniel _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group. See http://leica-users.org/mailman/listinfo/lug for more information
