Hi Luis,

Bravo. And now there are three. ;-)

Music and photography are my passions as well. You are so fortunate  
to be working in a profession you truly love. I am sure there are  
many of the Luggers that feel the same way. As for me I don't work  
(any more) so I can enjoy both passions at any time. Or at the same  
time.

Best Regards,
Len
