So, Ken, does this make you The Professor? I had always hoped those two would get married. :)

(Gilligan's Island joke! Hehe!)

Mary Ann, you look like your ancestors might be from Norway? :) Such a beauty. Hope you had a very happy day...and WHY DOES Ken lug all that stuff around? Bet your shots come out great, too!? :D
