Ot - I'm tickled pink! - Ulcerative Colitis

Here I was sitting on the couch, resting and watching the evening news when the photo I submitted to the local news station (the Weather pics section) shows up on the tv! I had my 3 mintues of fame! I didn't even bother to have them say my last name which they would probably butcher anyway so I only submitted my first name and all the news casters gave me kudos for the pic. Hehe!

Here is the picture - it was taken on my last trip up north to the river a few weeks ago. What you don't see if all of us wearing shorts and sweating our tushes off - very odd to see the colors change and we are wearing shorts!

No I haven't seen him around lately and I sure miss his photos! In fact, he was the one to inspire me to try to catch nature in photos.
