It is great for a couple of country boys to get together after keeping company with all the world traveling, highbrow gourmets we hang out with here;^) Roanoke River meets Chowan River on the Pamlico River. I left the Walmart tilley in the car so as to not make him swoon. We got to whine about not being able to afford an M8. It'll be expensive anyway. After borrowing the Voigtlander 15 for the morning and loaning the Noctiloony and Elmarit 21, we're both likely to drop silly money before long. Robert and I did have fun. No fancy cafe, just a picnic table on the park's swim beach. Maybe we'll hit The Rebel next time. I promise a table setting shot when that happens. I offered to put Robert's photo (15mm environmental portrait and not at all flattering) on Steve's site, but Robert got a little pointed about the gut. Too bad he's not so svelte as myself;^) It was fun. ric On Sep 5, 2007, at 4:49 PM, Robert Clark wrote: > I have to tell everyone that I met up with the very famous (in > eastern NC) > Ric Carter for a nice mornin' of photographin', talkin', checkin' > out the > river, and commiserating about all things Leica.
