    Cliff.
    If you find a post of mine that is missing a pic that you'd like to see, let me know & I'll see if I can find a copy.

    Wow! that old truck almost looks like a painting.
    How did you get the photo to look like that? Or is that how it actually looked.
    Great shots.

    Very interesting, wish I had the patience to learn photoshop. The final pic is so much more interesting than the original.
    Did you see any of Fred Brophy's boxers get beaten up?

    Yeah, we went to the fights Saturday night. It was a good bit of fun, There were two of Brophy's "girls" in a tag team match with a couple of girls from the audience. The two in the first photo put on a really good show, The lass in blue was copping a bit of a hiding from Brophy's girls, but she hung in there and the locals ended up winning. The crowd loved 'em and gave them a standing ovation.

    Thanks for posting Grumpy.....Love your photographs...
    And my head I'd be a scratchin'
    While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
    If I only had a brain.
