Ha! Tina--it's hotter than Hades here! Brutal. That's why I'm in my hotel 
room in the middle of the day. Too bright to shoot and too hot to live! I 
went to the Manzanar War Relocation/Internment Camp Museum for about an 
hour, and forgot my iphone in the car. When I came out, the iphone said it 
was too hot to work! That was a new one for me...

Glad you all liked the photo--thanks!
