Hi Bob! It’s been almost 3.5 years. I’m miss our long talks on the phone w/you needing advice on your photography. What step to go to take pix n what lens to use. If you didn’t have it, you sold a gun to get it. You always teased me about when we were in high school together. Have you been catfishing up there? I’m sure your photography is awesome. I just miss you hun.
