On one of my first European business trips just out of college, I took a
roll of pictures to impress my wife with my worldly travels. When it was developed, it was a series of some beautiful woman in front of the typical tourists stops. Distant. Up Close. Sensuous. Gazing to the horizon. etc. That's good photography. I used to take dozens of pictures of airplanes at Oshkosh. In fact, I've got 24 years of photo albums from OSH, and the first 8 are nothing but airplanes, and (once in a while) Mary. Or Chuck Yeager... ;-) They are incredibly boring, and we haven't looked at them in years. I eventually learned that pictures have to have people in them, or some sort of perceived motion. A plane going past with afterburner flames is good, people or not. But a plane parked alone on the ramp, unless the lighting is perfect or unique, isn't. Unless you plant your kids in front of it. Then it becomes part of the family, and a worthy picture -- even if they're not smiling. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

I noticed you didn't include any photos of the "sights & attractions" at
Myrtle Beach on your webpages. |

I noticed you didn't include any photos of the "sights & attractions" at
Myrtle Beach on your webpages. Heh! Well, um, I actually didn't take any pictures of that. I can't drool and take pictures at the same time... God almighty, all those spring break college girls prancing around wearing (literally!) nothing was nearly fatal. Poor Joe (my 16-year- old son) still has a sore neck from experiencing SBW* for two straight days. * = "Spring Break Whiplash" :-) Luckily, as an old married geezer, I have learned to move only my eyes, behind dark sunglasses... -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Is Joe the same son you were planning to take on a European tour? you
might want to ask him to relax a bit, there are places where he might be a wee bit overwhelmed... One and the same. He's slated to go to Spain with his Espanol class next year, and he's already counting the weeks and days. I'm sure he's already researched the location of every nude beach in Europe... ;-) -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

I'm sure he's already researched the location of every nude beach in
Europe... Is he planning on participating, or just observing? Jose -- Get high on gasoline: fly an airplane. for Email, make the obvious change in the address. |
