June 23, 2006: C-3 says bye bye and take the plunge
Jonathon is on holiday - so improved video next week
Sparky does it again - and welcome back to Sharon and her water taxi service.
Somehow my last visit without Sharon's smile was incomplete. Sharon, Kim
and the others have become an essential part of our team
Sparky and his smile
