Hi All,
So this is a shot of my shop and with me hammering a ring in September 1978.
There was a time when I didn't even need a optivisor.



Here are a few reasons why I like Canada. This is Me and the boys in 1992
catchen some sky, on the Zip line. If it isn't dangerous, we'll make that
way, just for kicks. Go Scouts.

Talk to ya later,
Jim

The good news in this part of the country is the water is frozen soon. You can just walk it!
We got 8" of snow today...

My pictures.

I can't resist to share some photos too, although these are the older that I have there. It was February 1984, almost 25 years ago!
The first to do not leave Scott hanging out there alone, my stupid one...
We were so young…, so thing…, so hairy… so…. :D
Cheers, Leonardo
PS. Please, excuse me for the suit… it was my wedding!;)

Thank you Jim, sure I am.
Regarding the glasses, that Ray-Ban’s were my favourites for a long time.
By the way, I was visiting friends in Victoria, Canada, in 1990 for a month. You have a wonderful Country and it is place that I must to visit again.
One of the thing that I always remember is the Steam Clock in Vancouver; an amazing and beautiful steam machine. I am attaching a picture of that. Also a photograph of Victoria at night. It is not a postcard, I shot it from the marine area resting on a fence.
Cheers, Leonardo.

Here I am, on the left, at age 21 fifty years ago, in Greenland in 1958, on expedition to climb new peaks and do 1,400 miles in a 14 foot boat. Lost eight of my nine lives, but lived to tell the tale.

By the way, been in Prague and Scotland for three weeks, and saying hello to the four surviving expedition members.

Marty,
You just showed us how OLD you are.... You already posted this picture earlier in this thread.
The memory is the 3rd thing to go.. Hair is the first...

I guess I might as well get in on this. This is me and my little brother who had the chicken pox. I guess I was about seventeen.

Well, here I go.

When I was borne my parents and friends called me Arno, like the Italian river.
Only later at the age of 12 I needed a pasport and then I realised it was Arnaud.
This because my father was not allowed to give the name of a river at that time.

The first photo is at the age of 4, the next one (I'm the one with the black hear) playing with the turtles.
The last one is at the age of 17.

Arnaud (arno)
