I have a motherinlaw from Huntsville Ontario, who's name is Dawn. Now in Canada-speak her name is pronounced with an 'ah' sound, so it sounds like the name Don. Coincidentally, she has a son who's name is Don (but in Canada-speak, it's pronounced just like ''Dawn"). Just try and sort that out!
Anyway Bob is a whole lot better than Boob (two o's). Welcome to ya

Northern friends
North shore of lake Erie-Am quite familiar with 'Duffy's' in Amherstberg [sic] just across from Grosse Ile MI where I was stationed. The Canadian Military friends were 'Her Majesty's Canadian Black Watch' Drill team out of Windsor. Many, many fond memories.

Hi Bob,
The wife and I are spending Sat. night in Suwannee State Park on our way to Hunting Island and Beaufort SC. Drop by if you want to see an EggCamper.
BTW, I'm an honorary Photo CPO; I worked for the Navy for 33 years, 20 of which were at the Navy photo school in Pensacola - until they moved to Ft. Meade, when I made the move to Corry and the CTs for the last ten years.
