Thanks to everyone for the kind words.  Hugo is a character.  He's sort of a clown.  He really loves children.  If he was given a choice between a rare steak and having a 2 year old pull his ears, he would take the 2 year old every time.  He was dumped on a Texas State Park.  I worked for Texas Parks and Wildlife for a couple years before going back to Higher Ed.  I ended up rescuing 6 dogs total.  I kept two of them and found homes for the other four.  I never had children so the dogs are in a way my children.  
Again, I just want to say what a great forum this is.  I am so impressed with the photography I see here.  I've had some health problems with my parents I had to attend to the last couple of days.  But I want to warn everyone, I'm going to want to learn a lot from you guys.  I hope I don't bother anyone with my boneheaded questions.  THANKS!!!!!!!!
