[Leica] IMG: Skipper and Smiling Selfie

[Jim Nichols]

Hi, Ric,

I just replaced the incandescent flood above my bathroom vanity with an 
LED replacement kit, as I did with some other recessed floods.  It is 
not quite as bright as the 150 flood, but the light seems more 
revealing.  I KNOW what aging means. :-)
