Tina:  Glad that you are all right.  You are *not* old, just 
experienced.  However, please be selective about what experience you 
experience.

Henning: My sympathies to Tanya.  At least all damage was temporary.

Eveybody, be careful out there. I want to see your pictures for many 
years to come. Virtual, pain-free hugs to the injured.

PESO:

It snowed in Charleston, SC, last night and this morning.  Last night we
walked from our B&B to a restaurant on Broad Street and I stepped on a
patch of ice.  My feet flew out from under me and I landed flat on my back.
  I had a digital M hanging from each shoulder and they hit the ground
before I did.  Fortunately, we are all fine.  I'm a little sore but nothing
is broken on me or my cameras!  Tom thinks I'm OK because we exercise 3
times a week at the Y.  I think I'm really lucky with Leica cameras!
  Photos of snow-covered palm trees will be posted as soon as I get them
downloaded.

The Weather Channel said Interstate 26 was impassable but it was fine.
  Snowy patches on bridges and overpasses but no traffic at all.

Glad to be home in one piece!!

Tina
