During my visit there Guy mentioned that I write a blog and submit a few pictures to go along with it. He was to send me the link but I think he’s been busy and forgot. I’d like to submit my thoughts and a few of my favorite pics. Please advise how I would accomplish this via my email….. thanks!! ????????
