I need to give a shout-out to my biggest supporter of all! That would be my darling husband, Mr. Craig Muller.  
Now honey, I might embarass you a bit here...
But it's true.  I am so lucky to have him.  Let me tell you, this guy's got some patience with a capital "P".  Let me paint a picture:
It's a beautiful Saturday morning.  "Honey, what do you want to do today?" "I don't know- let's take Kona for a walk on a nature trail".  "Sounds good, should I bring my camera?" "You might as well... you'll be mad if you don't".  ...an hour later....
"Look at these purple flowers!" Craig stops walking and waits as I take a couple of shots.  A few steps later... "Look at that reflection!" Craig stops walking and waits as I take a couple of shots.  A few steps later... "Look at that beautiful bird!" Craig stops walking and..... you get it.  Just repeat about 100 more times.  
He really is a special guy.  And to this day- has never complained.  He doesn't even roll his eyes at me! (I don't think).  He believes in me, gets excited for me, and supports me in every way.  Am I lucky or what?? What a guy.....
