I don't know if I'll ever carry a camera around as much as Sonny does,
but I am going to try to shoot a roll a day every day. I got behind on
the PAWs this year, and am committed to getting back on a daily
schedule of shooting. I don't smoke, but may have to take a 10-minute
break every few hours to get a few shots in (even if it is of the
smokers).
