Thank you all, my dear photographer friends

It is (almost was) my birthday today and it looks like I may have won a very coveted spot in the June contest. I'm saying thank you now because in three hours I am heading out of here into an area where I may not have Internet.
So, dear friends, don't miss me too much – because I will be back in a couple of weeks or so.
I am taking my camera.

It was a wonderful birthday, all things considered.
To you, in your present life situation, I wish you the nights of peace.
You are on my mind every day.

Over the weekend I made a film, a seven minute film. It was a film for the 48hour movie project.
The person whose idea it
was, and who assembled the seven-member crew, had Camera failure. So I had to jump in and film that entire thing with my Sony Alpha 65.
Our film was shown in Greensboro tonight. We got a very good reception, it was a dark comedy, and the audience really really laughed.
Maybe I can figure out a way to post it when I come back in a couple of weeks.

My friends who moved there, and kept their home in Sarasota, Are moving back home to the US of A. They are having some problems with the rabid republican expats in their community
I will help get the house ready for sale. I will enjoy the monkeys and the beautiful birds and the rolling hills.

Enjoy your trip.

Costa Rica! At one time, some years ago, we were building a house in Panama --Bocas del Toro area up
near the border with Costa Rica--but it got all bogged down with poor financial management on the part
of the developer. Anyway, one of the most right wing 'friends' I have on fb who puts up position papers
all the time hating on Obama, is an ex pat living in Panama. I can understand how folks like that could
make what your friends would hope to be a peaceful place to live a place they'd want to leave. But, if
they are going back to Sarasota, aren't they going to be pretty much in the same boat?
