"eeeyong", I went, holding a tiny model spitfire as I ran through the schoolyard. The boys and girls made fun of me because my arm swung backwards and forwards as I ran. They said that an airoplane didn't fly backwards and forwards as it flew along. And, close to tears, I said it could. Fifty eight years ago. I'm still that little boy and old enough for women to offer me their seats on the bus. Huh.

I'll let you use my Lake Trail image if you link back to my main blog, northmetro.blgspot.com I plan on posting it there this winter. My 3 Photos a Week blog has morphed into my practice blog for me to learn html.
