The snow in Skagen was beautiful in 2002.

Hi Dean, nice to see your pictures although they made me a bit homesick. I am myself an old student of Niels Helledie and am now living in the US. Skagen remains #1

Hey Dean good initiative. I'm sorry I'm in a rush. I sent my computer back to the firm. They are fixing it now. It isn't your fault. Sorrrrrry if I gave you a hard time. Didn't mean to. Miss your company though. Sis
