Many times I have seen Photographs where Renderosity Members meet other Members, recently it was Akinom meeting Her Fellow Countrymen of Germany. Yesterday, at My Home in the North Island of New Zealand, I answered a knock at My Front Door, and upon opening, I was confronted with a Gentleman, whom I did not know....but...He started to Recite Poetry to Me...and....instantly I recalled the Verse... this was [snowbain](http://www.renderosity.com/homepage.ez?Who=snowbain) a Retired Commercial Photographer, who Lives the Life of a Recluse, Pans for Gold and Bush Walks on the isolated West Coast of NZ. Snow is without His Internet Connection at the moment....and, I said I would pass on His warmest regards to any that may remember Him. At 70 Years, and still going strong....that is Snow in the left side of the Photo...the other Grumpy Old Man is Me.

How cool is that?!? Hello Snowbain. And Tedz and the rest of your menagerie! A very neat encounter and a fun look at the inside of your house. So, how do we get a photo up on that wall of yours? ;] It just goes to show you never know who is going to show up at your door. Thanks for sharing. Salute!

Haw haw haw!!! Great and congrats. It's good to know what the other Brian looks like. Funny you both must have really youthfull personalities I had always thought both you and Snowbain were in you mid 20's to mid 30's. Snigger. So that's what you look like!!! Bsteph
