The vote on what to wear in a future photo session between a race car jump suit, wet suit or both outfits have been decided at my Tripod web page and the majority of you chose that I wear a race car jump suit. I will mention that it can be what someone wears while motorcycle racing even. For the photo session, I will use my motorcycle helmet and I will be more than happy to stand in front of someone's sports car for the photo session. The thing now is to find out what I will do next, purchase it, rent one or have someone make one. I would like to do it this spring. Any of you with advice you're welcome to respond.

While the wet suit will not be put on for now, I do want to let everyone know that "In the Beautiful Underwater" is starting early this year at my Tripod web site. HOWEVER, it will be during my Surfer Appreciation Weekend on March 7, 8 and 9 and it will be a virtual dive which you will see 15 of my favorites photos that those of you who have submitted during the past 3 years. This will mean don't submit photos. You will be able to submit at a later time for the 2008 edition to be held this Summer.

This day was expected to have up to 5 inches of snow here in Wheeling, but the forecasts changed last week and this morning it rained hard with lightning also at about 1:30 A. M. or so. Five years ago on this President's Day Holiday, the area was hit with a blizzard. We are expected though to have 1 to 3 inches, it did flurry this morning.

I promised you all that I will add photos to my Myspace page and there will be a new photo albums of some of the pets that we've had in our family.
