Jared Polin Froano's Photo.com. And this is Daily Fro for March 15th, 2018. The time is 6.34 p.m.

I want to get this done a little earlier today because I had an idea. This is episode number 49, where I sit down sometime during today to share what is on my mind.

And today, something's on my mind. But before that, you can call me at 267-4546-3-76 if you have feedback. There's a

voicemail that will play at the end of the show. It's two and a half minutes from a guy calling me from England.

It was actually pretty cool that he could do that and was part of calling me about something I said in episode 48 of the Daily Fro.

So if you haven't checked out the 48 prior episodes, please go ahead and do that.

So I was checking the mail today, and there was a check in there.

And the check comes from basically Allen's camera for sponsorship and advertising and posts that, not post but uh banners on the site

and other things that we do together and it took me back to the very beginning of fro no's photo

and the support that i got from allan at allan's camera now alan passed away a couple years ago

unfortunately and brandon now Brandon now took over the

store and is doing a great job. Brandon's his son, and we continue to work together very well because

of, you know, I help bring people to a mom and pop store that otherwise isn't competing in a

global world because of their location and the size.

But the one thing that Alan's camera has always done is take care of their customers.

They're very loyal. They will make sure they get whatever you need.

And of course, as the world changed, it's much harder for a mom and pop store to survive. So let's go back to

2010, around the beginning of the time where I started to do Froano's photo. I wasn't working at

Allens. I worked at Allen's in 2007 or eight or something like that. Maybe it was up to 2009. I

think it was like a little over a year. It was the max

that I could do before I left to go out on my own to do something that I wanted to do.

Yeah. Look, when you're working retail, anybody that's ever worked retail, you get it. You show up at
