You're one crazy Canadian!
Sorry we missed you in the States Fi, maybe in NYC in a couple of months? We've returned to Guatemala getting an exhibition together but Josie's caught a bad bug so we might check out soon. Your travels in California and Nevada make you look like a different person to the girl we met in Argentina! Very entertaining, Chris was a lucky guy to travel with you!! Where are you now? Email us, we don't want to loose touch!! Love Eddie and Josie
