If I had the right camera I could take photos of anything without anyone knowing. P&S cameras are more difficult due to shutter/focus lag<br /><br /><b>BlueKat:</b> It's always great to be away on unfamiliar roads, plus to meet familiar people once a year. Many had come from out of town, Seattle, Bellingham, Calgary. I would guess only 100 bikes this year, when it is usually around 150+<br /><br /><b>Heels/Pam:</b> Victoria is very scooter friendly due to aging population and slower traffic. Not as aggressive drivers as in the big city. Some of the vintage scooters were very niceAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05258612401956399482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2738356784230164028.post-55190360654517342522011-05-30T09:55:54.725-07:002011-05-30T09:55:54.725-07:00Ken: Yes, Tess does have nice lenses, they are li...<b>Ken:</b> Yes, Tess does have nice lenses, they are like eye magnets. I wished we could have conversed more but I had to return home, and she lives in Seattle<br /><br /><b>Nikos:</b> It was a challenge, but I persevered and got the shot. I am a sucker for Eggs Benedict, esp when there is lots of Hollandaise sauce.<br /><br /><b>Jack:</b> I also got re-imbursement from our medical provider for $44. (co-pay), so the pills only cost me NET $13.00 .<br /><br />For those UP shots you suggested, I would need a shoeCAM, then get arrested if someone spotted me, let Michael try it first<br /><br /><b>Charlie6:</b> Short, tight mini-skirts . . . I love them. Can't wait for summer and hotter weather . At least Steve has photos of those sugar laced confections which will refresh his memory of what he is missing. Yesterday I was at the supermarket, and hungry. I looked at the salad but came home with blueberry danish instead. Maybe later I will buy a large bag of salted chips.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05258612401956399482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2738356784230164028.post-78153608985338331782011-05-28T21:05:51.946-07:002011-05-28T21:05:51.946-07:00Nice scooters!!

Nevertheless, you are far ahead of Michael Beattie for shots that take some degree of balls. <br /><br />As per our concersation the other day, Celebrex treats the symptom, not the cause. I hinestly thing you will get some relief elevating that foot at the end of the day and icing it. <br /><br />I am amazed that 30 Celebrex are $57 in Canada. They are $154 for 30 in the US.<br /><br />Fondest regaerds,<br />Jack/reep<br />Twisted RoadsJack Riepehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07531160098262862027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2738356784230164028.post-78750002581797430242011-05-28T02:50:16.453-07:002011-05-28T02:50:16.453-07:00Bob
