Jared Polin Froonosphoto.com, and this is the Daily Fro for August 25th, 2018.

0:07.2

The time is 1159 in the p.m.

0:09.8

This is episode number 186, where I sit down sometime during the day to share what's on my mind with you,

0:14.9

and you get to share what's on your mind with me by calling or texting 267-4546376.

0:20.4

One thing I'll start off with and probably leave this pretty short is that the one thing

0:25.5

that I was concerned about coming out of the Z7 event in New York City is that anybody that

1:22.8

Because people have been requesting that they see the full res images that I took,

1:26.3

and we look at them.
