[Leica] Vacation, panorama, rotator cuff

[drodgers at casefarms.com (David Rodgers)]

Ric,

Sorry to hear about your shoulder, but I'm glad it wasn't worse. One of
my son's friends fell down 4 steps of stairs in Corvallis, OR last
weekend. He injured his head. He's in the hospital. It's been touch and
go. He's 21-years old. It's tragic. Life can change quickly. BTW, we're
getting updates on caringbridge.org. It's a great website.

Good God, Ric, I'm glad you're alive!
 8-12 steps, at our age? You're lucky as hell. 
Advice? - count your blessings.
 
And the pano? Wish I were there.

I'm down east bumming the occasional Internet connection from a
neighbor. The mosquitos are too rough for me to spend a lot of time
browsing the web, so please excuse my not telling everyone how nice the
pics you are posting look.

MRI tells me that a rotator cuff repair is necessary. It's the result of
a fall -- fell down 8-12 wet steps during a light rain about a month
ago. The bag of Leica gear pulled me to my right side before flying
around the dark yard. It held up unharmed, apparently a bit better than
I. Surgery set of August--crappy sleeping until then. Right shoulder, of
course. Advice welcome.

Nathan's panoramas made me want to try one. This one is from Pamlico
Beach -- north prong of Wright Creek -- around Schoolhouse Landing. It's
from 14 frames on the M8. I don't remember the lens for sure, but I
think it was the Summicron 90. It's about 180 degrees of the creek. This
is very near where Robert Clark visits with his family. For his benefit,
it's just around the bend and down the creek from Hopkins Marina.

I don't know about the pano tool, so please hit the big button of the
shot (about 500K).
