Great news in the past as in the present ! Y lo mejor: que la hubiese publicado “El Correo de Zamora” 😀

... of every newspaper around the World. Here the front page of "Clarin" one of our most popular newspapers in my Country as well of some other papers from USA and UK as well. Cheers! Abel ...  

Many thanks to you, Abel ! I found it funny because Zamora is a very small town from Castilla y León Region, which means that the newspaper is a very very local one. (By the way, Zamora is a beautiful city and is therefore worth to visit.)

Hopefuly she will visit again some day and I will make company to her. She was fascinated with the place and region. Abrazos! Abel

¡Un abrazo fuerte!

Thanks for wishes. We have witnessed some miraculous things, hopefully more to come.

By the way, he defended his thesis wearing the Speedy Moonwatch that I gave him two years ago……Successfully. He now has masters in computer engineering. Thesis was on supercomputing.

... with space of course. I´m sure he values it so much being a present from his Dad. Best cordial regards, Abel

...seeing it as it happened. All with slide rules and late '60s technology. Talk about brave men : )

I was out catching crab on Whidbey island and saw it on a little TV some fisherman had out there.

Best cordial regards, Abel
