Dan,
Welcome to the North Country! Today I needed
my 4WD Jeep to deal with freezing rain, sleet and snow up here in cold old
Vermont! That being said, this is a wonderful part of the world to live in
and photograh.

Hey
Mark,
Thanks for the good wishes.
Our new home is in Palenville,
NY. I've proudly told just about everyone the following fact but in case I
missed you, Palenville is the mythical home of Rip Van Winkle. Jill says our
workshops up there will be known for their afternoon naps. ;^)
Lots of
modifications have to take place. A 1,700 sq. ft. basement (they don't have
such things in Texas) will be converted to studio and darkroom. I'm really
looking forward to the four seasons, green mountains (we're actually in the
Catskills Park) and fresh air. Oh, and the roads are so beautifully
3-dimensional that motorcycling is not exactly the last thing on the "can't
wait for spring" list. I've posted a shot from my first post-surgery
motorcycle ride on New Year's Eve on our server. It was only a rotator cuff
repair (and NOT riding related) but for those who haven't had the pleasure,
the recovery is painful and limiting. The (faster and sexier) bike on the left
is mine (yeeha!), and notice the "buck authority" parking job:

In
fact, my one splurge on the house deal is having a 4' wide overhead door on
the side of the garage so I can leave and enter on a bike without moving any
cars. We've never even experienced a garage door opener before so this is a
double treat. I keep telling Jill that motorcycling is part of my mid-life
crisis but she says with 40 years of riding behind me I'd better come up with
something new...that doesn't walk on two legs. Oh well....
Once we get
settled, you and all friendly photo folks are invited to visit. Photo
opportunities are abundant: waterfalls (taller than Niagara), forests and
meadows all within 10 minutes. I'm anxious to get to work on a New York
portfolio!
Dan
