originally posted by Kay Bixler: That is a huge amount of food.

Kay, Yes, we thought so also...at least one course too many.

The Houston Club did a good job, though, as it was quite good.

Kay,
Peter keeps tell me that he is quite trim and healthy but I've been reading his notes for several years now and I am convinced he's the second coming of Orson Wells and a liar.
Pretty good photographer though . . . of course, Kane is better.
Best, Jim
 
Rahsaan, In case you're not being facetious, click on the thumbnails for the enlargements.

I was just joking because the images are indeed small but I didn't realize you could click on them for enlargements. That does make it easier to see. Thanks.

Jim, I don't recall making any such representation!?!

To whatever extent, if any, it is true, then it is due to sticking to a fairly careful diet and EVERY day exercise.
