Hello Ted,

	Just about any Canadian weather is a shock after living in the warmer
climes for so many years.  We have been having lots of rain here as the
monsoons are just starting up but unfortunately my darkroom is not set up
yet so I can't take advantage of the wet weather.  I suppose that I am
luckier than most in that I can choose when and what I shoot and can work
around the weather - such is life without clients to dictate what needs to
be done.

	Anyway Ted, take care and I'll try to get in touch with you when we are on
the Island - it's a beautiful place.

Ian
