It started out as a gloomy week for me facing surgery on Friday, but as the week went on all the news got better and this was the icing on the cake.
My first double truck in this weeks Sports Illustrated.

Hey Jim,

You did a fabulous job!!!
Was this done with the trusty MKIIn?
I remember you were very upset w/ the MKIII and sold it expecting to get another MKIIn.
Hope your surgery went well, if it didn't I'm sure that spread pretty much numbed the rest of your body for a while anyway.

Yep the IIn. All I shoot now after returning the MkIII. Surgery went real well, went to the doc today for my f/u and everything is good. Thanks everyone for the comments. I don't post much here, but visit all the time. This is a Great Forum with excellent photogs.

When I grow up I wanna be like Jim! I know I've told you several times already Jim but you can't have too many Congrats. So, Congrats!

I'll be there Sunday, not to work though. Just to shoot for myself but I'll be in my same seat. We'll talk soon.
