I still can't imagine who got the idea to send a camera crew out on those
crab boats and make a show out of it. And celebrities out of the crews.

Our family is a hooked as anyone else, don't get me wrong. Both grandsons
checked out your pictures yesterday and are most impressed.

But still, it had to have seemed like a really hare brained idea at first.

I'm not allowed in the room however when Survivorman is on. The idiot that
gets himself dropped off at various locations without food, water, or
matches and films himself surviving for several days off the land. They
just glare at me when I ask why he can't just pack a lunch.

Oh, Jo, thank you for that laugh. I needed it.

There is a book out now called "Deadliest Catch: Desperate Hours". They
gave us a copy at the party. It was supposed to be a one time thing -
just a documentary that was part of an Extreme Alaska series. But people
loved it and it took off

LOL!!! Yea, I'm not into that one at all. But there is something about
Deadliest Catch that I just love. Maybe it's because I've watched it for
the past three years, and you get caught up in each person's personal story.

One of the most interesting guys I met the other night was one of the
cameramen. We had a lot of fun and he had some great stories to tell! I
don't envy him his job though. But we did have a terrific conversation
on photography
