Good God, Ric, I'm glad you're alive!
 8-12 steps, at our age? You're lucky as hell. 
Advice? - count your blessings.
 
And the pano? Wish I were there.

Subject: [Leica] Vacation, panorama, rotator cuff

I'm down east bumming the occasional Internet connection from a neighbor. 
The mosquitos are too rough for me to spend a lot of time browsing the web, 
so please excuse my not telling everyone how nice the pics you are posting 
look.

MRI tells me that a rotator cuff repair is necessary. It's the result of a 
fall -- fell down 8-12 wet steps during a light rain about a month ago. The 
bag of Leica gear pulled me to my right side before flying around the dark 
yard. It held up unharmed, apparently a bit better than I. Surgery set of 
August--crappy sleeping until then. Right shoulder, of course. Advice 
welcome.

Nathan's panoramas made me want to try one. This one is from Pamlico Beach 
-- north prong of Wright Creek -- around Schoolhouse Landing. It's from 14 
frames on the M8. I don't remember the lens for sure, but I think it was the 
Summicron 90. It's about 180 degrees of the creek. This is very near where 
Robert Clark visits with his family. For his benefit, it's just around the 
bend and down the creek from Hopkins Marina.

I don't know about the pano tool, so please hit the big button of the shot 
(about 500K).
