[Leica] For Sale: Your LUG yearbook 2014 (Ted Grant)

[Tina Manley]

I got my copy today and looked at it in the waiting room of the Toyota
Service Center.  It's fabulous!  I can't imagine that it could be any
better.  It's so great to see all of those wonderful photos gathered in one
fantastic, hardcover, image-wrapped Blurb book.  I am thinking about
ordering some more soft cover ones for friends and family and probably will.

Thanks to everybody who contributed, but special thanks to Geoff who made
it all possible and to Ted for whom we all continue to strive to show how
much we have learned!

Lots of Love,

Tina (still learning)
