I have fond memories about him and I remember this particular picture. Now is time for Reagan to tell us how many times he bought and later sold each camera from this picture and some that were produced at a later time. I wonder if he can remember.

You need to lay off the 135. You are about to cost me $$$. I am starting to get the same tug I have for the 105 and the 180 looking at those. Really great candid shots. Love em!
And indulge me, I didn't get a chance last Wednesday to contemplate anything then. This is Jerri, the cat I had to put to sleep that day, before all hell broke loose.

Raphael,
If there was ever a truck screaming for a rifle rack in the back, this one is it!
Cool cars Ken, today I charged the battery, vacuumed out the rat trash, cranked it, oil pressure goes up fine with cranking, did not have starter fluid, cleaned and sprayed with WE=40 the entire engine compartment. Next is the starting fluid to make sure the spark is there. My country rats do not eat the wires, they are all there.

Phillippe, really love those mysterious, inviting shadows and curved paths that leave you wondering where they lead and what is just out of sight! Would love to wander those cobblestones for hours and see where they lead and what views await!

Laura, Jerri was absolutely beautiful! That center pic of her says it all! Our fur buddies fill a very special place in our lives!!

Funny that white pickup can be seen in the 10 year old shots of your place Rafael, likely parked in the same place!
I can't imagine there is heavy rainfall in your neighborhood given the type of foliage. I did a quick search and Lindbergh Field gets average rainfall of 10.34 inches. That compares with Marin's water district that reports we get over 52 inches. Last fiscal year you got over 12 inches at Lindbergh.
August is a pretty hot month in your neck of the woods, while we get warmest weather in September and October when weather patterns change so we don't get fog and offshore breezes. I always look forward to the arrival of rain in late October and November. I imagine folks in southern California feel the same. Let's hope we get some real rain this year.

Raphael,
Five years ago racoons or squirells ate the “3” wire in my Vette while we were outside Seattle. Car went to bed fine and woke up to a check engine light. Long story short used a wire from a great Chevy Dealer in Ellenton,Wa. Then back to Florida.
But ... thats not my comment. I seem to see an SKS in the hand of a fine young man taking out a propane tank.

Your eyes do not lie Ken. It is a 1951 Russian SKS complete with bayonet and a young Catalan who had never shot a gun before. Cannot teach young men to surf anymore but I can still teach them to properly ignite propane
