PESO:

I'm in California hiking in the Sierra Nevada mountains and have not 
had e-mail for over a week.  We've had a wonderful trip and I've 
taken many photos with my two M8's but on Tuesday, we were hiking 
near Southfork Lake in the John Muir Wilderness when I stumbled over 
a rock and fell face first onto my M8.  I broke my nose but the M8 is 
fine, as far as I can tell and I've continued to take photos with it 
in spite of two very black eyes.  Can you see the imprint of the M8 on my 
face?

I look even worse today as all of the colors are more vivid and 
spreading over most of my face.  We'll be back home on Wednesday with 
a week to recuperate before I head off for Honduras.  I'm still 
having nightmares about falling on my M8 though!!!

More photos later.
