    • Jan. something 2002

    While in Russell I did a little photo shoot for Kent and Mary and added pictures to their web site.The center picture below is them. Now Im back in Auckland staying with Clara, who I met in the LA airport. Dinner with her and her friends Chris and Peter is gourmet stellar, with 3 kinds of wine. Gosh its great when people work for New Zealands biggest wine company.

    Im growing to love Steinlager beer and New Zealand wines..
