  Here in BC, the Knowledge Network (our public broadcaster) and the Ministry 
of Tourism have joined forces to help each small town in BC build a decent 
web-site.  To this end, they put out a "call for photographers" (amateur or 
pro) - one for each town, to provide 6 photos, taken over 6 months, of their 
town.   

  Interested photogs were to apply, by email, by the 15th.  Although I'd 
applied back on Feb. 2nd., the town appeared not to know I had sent it in!   
So, at their Tuesday night meeting, Council passed a resolution that staff 
contact me, to see if I was interested in the  job!  Yesterday, I got the call. 
Naturally, I said "yes" and the deed was done.

  It's not a huge deal, but it does carry a $3,000 stipend, which for a retired 
geezer, like myself, is just fine!  :-)  Besides, photographing the town's 
events (which I would do, anyway) for a summer, should be a whole bunch of fun!

  Colour me pleased.
