[Leica] Nathan's PAD 18/8/2015: take me out to the ball game

[leica_r8 at hotmail.com (Aram Langhans)]

Nice series.  I could not find the first one from 21 years ago.

Now, the cotton candy in a bag?  I don't know.  It just isn't cotton candy 
unless they make it in the machine and you can watch them swirl it around 
the paper cone handle.  I have not had cotton candy in a long time because I 
have not found anyone making it any  more, not even a a state fair.  what's 
the deal????
