image is rotated right once.

this shot is in loving memory of my only brother, charles robert keifert, a proud german, who passed away 10 years ago.

I was his little grease monkey helping him restore old cars in the 60's...he was the best damn big brother any girl could have had and I miss him every day.

"liquid gold" is what he called beer, and it corrupted his life.
