For much better quality pics of Wednesday's adventure - check out Robin's blog.

Memo to phishers & spammers
It might help if you at least SPELL your key words correctly? Just a thought.
What we have here..is a failure..to communicate!
I've freely admitted my entire adult life that I am not a very 'phone friendly' person. I can't explain it, it just is what it is, but I've never been comfortable talking on the phone.
