| Dave, Thanks for the compliments, I was really trying to get a late afternoon feel, as a result, some of the shots turned out horrible, that's why there is no coherent storyline, just snapshots of the sets. Thanks again. Jon (...) (23 years ago, 10-May-02, to lugnet.western)

As I looked through all the photos, I was trying to piece together a story - is there one? And I kept wiating for (...) (23 years ago, 10-May-02, to lugnet.western)
