    Oh boy, that's yummy. Very well composed, which is what I've come to expect from you. And you get some fantastic sunsets there, also!

    Re your comment on Ocala DP: Yes, the guy was wearing a matching yellow helmet but I think he would be slightly miffed if you called his Harley-Davidson motorcycle a "cart." Heh, heh!

    Hi EG. Re your questions on Stone Creek: Yes, as fishy as it sounds, that is the fisheye effect of the Canon S95. And no, Santa leaves me only a lump of coal 'cause I'm always a bad, bad boy!
