Hey Jim,

Thank you for the kind words. Cali died yesterday (10/12/12). It has been emotionally exhausting. She uptimately lost her back legs the night before last and we knew it was now time. Se did not suffer, for which I am glad. When I get home, I will go through some of my old photos of her.

As to the workshop, I assist Steve on these events. I definitely get to shoot, but it is more or less secondary to watching and making sure that the group is functioning. I have learned a ton from Steven, watching him run his groups. It has definitely been a worthwhile experience.

Well, I am going to grab a shower and crash. I was up at 4:30 am this morning to fly put here and we will be wheels up and out at 4:45 am tomorrow!

James
