I was wondering what happened.  Now I know.

It reminds of the time I hit a hog on a 2 lane between Waco and Smithville,
Texas, one night back in the sixties.  Pretty much destroyed an Impala, not
to mention the hog.

I'll be at the Leica DC store the afternoon of Saturday, Nov. 10.  If I
don't see you there at least I'll see your prints.

Hang in there, it's just another one of them there experiences.
