Hi, LUGnuts -

I'm back.  It was a long, tiring, but very good trip.  One week in Honduras 
staying with rural families, one week in a village on the border with El 
Salvador with the medical brigade and one week traveling around Guatemala 
with the medical brigade.

We met with Nancy McGirr and delivered all of your gifts at the project 
headquarters a few blocks from the dump in Guatemala City.  She was very 
appreciative of everything and plans to take photos of the kids using your 
gifts to post to the list.  I never got a chance to get to the dump for 
photos.  The clinic that we offered at Nancy's center was swamped with 
patients all day and I was busy translating.  I did get a few photos of the 
doctors at work which I will post when I get a chance.

I've been developing film since Thursday and ran across a problem I wonder 
if any of you have seen.  Several of the rolls of film are fogged  at the 
end of the roll - about 5 or 6 photos progressively fogged to the end of 
the strip.  I thought at first that I might have a light leak in one of my 
M6's, but then I noticed that it was only the TMax 400 that was 
fogged.  The TriX is fine and so are the TMax 100, TMax 3200 and Neopan 
1600.  They were all purchased from B&H, all fresh, and all developed in my 
Jobo.  Anybody got any clue as to what might cause this?

It's great to be back, but I'm leaving a week today for a photo workshop in 
Santa Fe.  Any LUGgers out that way?

Leically,

Tina
