Thanks, Ted.

Sonny is really good, isn't he?

It's like being photographed by La Louisianne's  HCB....you never see 
the camera move, and snap, he's got you!

I was standing next to him when he shot

and I saw the look of interest in his eye and watched him move around 
but never did see him raise the camera to his eye to take the shot; I'm 
not really sure he did.

And how are you doing way up there in the frozen north, my old mentor 
and friend?

;-)  ;-)

I'm doing fine down here, smiling through the raindrops and waiting for 
my next M8.  The first one worked for thirty days and the second one 
worked for thirty minutes.  Do you suppose the third time is the charm?

I guess with age comes patience, if not wisdom.

:-)

Best regards to you and Irene,
