Classic "Richard" stuff Richard!

My old man was a geologist and spent a lot of time in the bush. He
would have found your report extra interesting. I really liked the
pics of the Wheeler Geologic Area.

Your report is an inspiration for me to try and make sense of the
video footage I just shot of Squamish, Whistler, Pemberton, etc.,
during the maiden voyage in my Jetta conversion. And.....

I think there are some distinct safety advantages of actually getting
out of your Westy and shooting stills, as opposed to shooting video
while driving!

Not to mention actually getting some exercise! --- ;^)
