Thank you judges and all my BP friends. I am in Canada with limited access, my computer got busted the first day out as well as my favorite 24 to 105 EF lens. I borrowed a computer for a short access but will be back after Aug 8th I hope. Got to get my computer back to repair as well as my lens. Have gotten some great photos in Canada so far. Like a bad penny I will be back. Emile #10253577
