I will begin my summer research trips today and will spend two months on the road.
I will update you as I travel.
Have a great week.

even third or fourth wife
You look so handsome

My last 256 ODU IFA PAINTING.
My last 256 ODU IFA painting has been acquired by the Boston community center, The Guild. It is a great home for the painting. They have huge walls and the painting graces one of the large walls by the entrance.
