7. One thing that no one knows about you.
Okay I will tell you'll something you'll don't know! Will that do? If so, here goes! I started singing in Church as a very young girl. Through out the years I have sang at Weddings, Funerals, Colleges & Night Clubs. In 2003 I sang for a group of RCA recording executives I had an opportunity to go on, but another back injury put things to a halt. Yes, I still sing for such events when requested. I will have to look up my DVD and post a video clip of me singing.

Would love to hear that, Shari.

Can't speak for the meds, but I'd say father time has been very kind too you. I can see that Smiles is an appropriate handle too. Between you and Glenda this thread got a lot more beautiful today. Not to say that all the lovely ladies before you didn't already brighten up this forum. (Whew, almost stepped in it there)...

Thanks, Gary! I think you managed to extricate yourself just in time

I don't know how to cut and paste, so I printed the questions out and will try and answer them this way.
1. Robert Gruetter, Bob, although my wife has many more.
2. Wife's name is Patricia/ none still living ( sorry about the bum out)
3. Florida, USA
4. I started a little over 1/2 a year ago.
5. A lot depends on the weather. 150 to 200 a day is not unusual for me when I''m into a subject I really
like.
6. I use, at the present time, a Fuji S9100. I still have my film cameras. Feel film is still the way to go for
quality portraits (really old purest).
7. If I told you that I would have to cut your vocal chords and make you a quad amputee.

To find the questions to these answers, check another post. This is the best I can do.
You won't find a picture of me 'cause i haven't been on that side of the camera in over 25 years.
