Cool, Ali, thanks. Is the cover photo a Steve Simonsen shot?

Last night when I turned the page, I thought, "Oh, that looks like Mr. Benjamin..." It is Mr. Benjamin! A wonderful article about a magnificent man.

If you haven't done so, read ME AND MY BELOVED VIRGIN. It's lyrical, humorous and in moments, heartbreaking. More than anything, Mr. Benjamin's joyous embrace of life and his island shines through.

Haven't gotten mine yet, but does that make back to back StJ covers? Was the last issue the "Great Photoshop Caper of Trunk Bay?"
