Otherwise, I know he would be asking for those pics of Darla with that lense. He was to return back to work Monday but that has been delayed a day or so.

Very nice pics. Too bad I did not get to meet you and Darla when Steve and I were at the Bash the end of April. Met Tracy and Ernie and lot of other great folks. Had a good time. Maybe next time.

We need to get together pretty soon and do a little photo shoot. I finished my car last week and took it to Evansville to see my parents and while I was there I took some really cool pics. The 5D would have come in handy. Sanding and polishing on the car as we speak and should be ready to roll on Sunday. Can't wait to get some more shots!
Thanks Mark.......I'm anxious to see the new paint job on your Viper.......
Hopefully this weather will break soon and dry up a little so we can get the two together for some pics...

He's not totally finished but it looks pretty damn SWEET.

Thank you Jim.....that means alot to me....

Irv called me this morning....after reading this thread, and we talked...

He was a Navy Korean War Veteran, and when I was little, he used to take me to all the local car shows...henceforth, the car show bug was born.

Rest his Soul..

Thank You too Tammy...
