I'm not giving up shooting, just airplanes. Thank you all for such kind
words.

The problem is usenet is about dead. I can't really justify the cost of
Giganews anymore for two or three groups. The other problem is that I
have so many pictures I would like to edit & post, but I just don't have
the time with all of my other hobbies going on. Here is a link to my
most time consuming one:

http://modelshipworld.com/index.php?/topic/7452-us-brig-niagara-by-laxet-model-shipways/


Someday I will eventually get around to them, but there are over 40,000
to go through. I need to separate the wheat from the chaff first. I will
look around for a free usenet app, but for now, as of the end of the
month I'm gone.

So, as requested by Mr Savageduck (I don't even know your name), here is
a link to Dale & Ray's last hurrah at LAX.

Sniff!
