I find it so, more and more!

 We used to go down there - is it near Santa Cruz? 

Just before you get to the south end of Rt. 17, where it meets up with
Rt. 1, you get off at Mt. Herman road, thru the small town of Scotts
Valley and then head north up Rt. 9, along the San Lorenzo River.
That junction is several miles north of Santa Cruz, but indeed in the vicinity!
 
Daughter's house backs up on the west bank of that river. She's got a
nice patio 1/2 way down the semi-wooded slope, room for 6 or 8 chairs,
cool and shady in the summer, great view of the river slowly heading by...

See my response to Dan.

You know I honestly thought about whether or not to re-skin it.  With three
normal ones, it will become difficult to tell them apart.  Except for the
one from Italia, it has a special little badge on its front.

Chances are it will remain as it is though.  But just in case maybe I should
peruse the replacement leathers available and pick a suitable one ;-)

Hi Marcel;

Actually discussions of photography, especially when taken with Pentax
equipment is very much on topic. The list does have an occasional tendency
to take an off topic thread and run wild with it. Just take it with a grain
of salt and it will eventually run its course. One of the things I
especially like about the list is its international nature. You mentioned
that you are Polish. We have a number of Polish members on the list. You
will also find on the list a wealth of Pentax and general (and specific)
photographic knowledge.

Wherever it is that Bob Blakely lives, I'm going to go there one day
and get real drunk with him.

Cheers!

 Put in the film and sync up the flash
 Or you ain't gonna make no spendin' cash
 If you don't check those batteries over
 You ain't gonna be rollin' in the clover
 Yakety yak (don't talk back)

 Just you finish cleanin' those lenses
 Let's see that dust fly off that 67
 Get excess garbage out of the bag
 Go take those photos of that ol' hag
 Yakety yak (don't talk back)

 You just put on your coat and hat
 And walk yourself to the photomat
 And when you finish doin' that
 Crop those prints 'cause your a hack
 Yakety yak (don't talk back)

 Don't you give me no dirty looks
 Your PUG is hip; they knows what cooks
 Just tell your hoodlum model outside
 You ain't got time to take her ride
 Yakety yak (don't talk back)

 Yakety yak, yakety yak
 Yakety yak, yakety yak
 Yakety yak, yakety yak

 Regards,
 Bob

  LOUD! The LXxen just talk alot.

I am of Polish descent - my family moved from Poland to France just about 
the time I was born.  I have never been to Poland.  It is not my home.

Thank you for the kind welcome.

Hi Marcel;

You mentioned
that you are Polish. We have a number of Polish members on the list. You
will also find on the list a wealth of Pentax and general (and specific)
photographic knowledge.
