I dont know if you still visit this forum as you only posted once well over a year ago.

I didn't know Ginger Albin but I know someone that knew him very well. I trust that person deeply and have good reason to. They have told me many stories about Albin.

I wont go into detail here. But PM if you get this and I can tell you more.

Some great images here btw.
