Ted, hard to believe it but I was a bit behind on the LUG. I just read your 
newspaper article.
A very pleasant and well deserved tribute, I think. I fully expected the 
journalist to write a glowing article, but then I see that
you were pouring single malt into his head. How could he be anything other 
than complimentary???

Congratulations, mate.

"With wife's gift, he got the picture"
Howdy crew,
Well I'm slowing down and some days damn near stopped, But this getting old 
is the worst affliction known to man! :-(  But youth? Damn I loved it so! 
:-) However, it seems people keep coming and asking about the "perils of 
photolife as a photojournalist." ;-)

What can you say but..... "quickly turn back the clock, let me start all 
over again." Even with it's perils and pitfalls because so many beautiful 
things made it worth while!  And still make it worth while.  " When I can 
get unstuck!" Thanks Kyle for that line! :-)

For what it's worth the latest as of this morning's paper. I believe this 
site address should take you directly to the interview page under...."With 
wife's gift, he got the picture."
