I love Dave Wilber, he is such a great sport and is willing to have fun with me and my camera. I got these fun shots of him.

Gail, thanks so much for this report. For those of us who can't make it to Tucson (Drat!), it is the next best thing.

My last show in Tucson was in 1992, surely the next will be in 2019, after retirement, luckily while I have the reportages of Gail.
Thank you very much Gail.

Thanks Brooks and Enrique.
We spent the day at the Sonora Desert Museum today, really a good place to get away to for a while!
Photos to come later.
