I heard from George McGovern. [View all]

I had left him an email note several months ago. He said to pass the information on to everyone else. He has contracted Parkinson Syndrome. He said he and his wife were adjusting but it isn’t easy.
I miss his photographs both the sunsets, but also the ones around his ranch. Sigh.
