It's going on a month since my last outing.
Maybe when Dave's 130 shows up, it will draw the clouds south.

It figures, someone mentions clouds and it appears I'm covered over this weekend.




Welcome back, buddy!

Didn't know there was also a "welcome back" cloud curse, didja?!

But Jerry, he already has a 66mm and an 80mm...he's already gotten sucked in. There's no hope for him.

And yeah, Dave, thanks bunches for bringing in the cloud curse, buddy.

But congrats on the new TMB130SS!




Thanks, Steph... but just look at the sky clock today; there's hope!

Hey y'all - is there a "$$$-to-number-of-cloudy-nights" ratio??? If so, I'm in deep doo-doo!



Jerry,

I can't help but follow your (and Luke's) fine examples of how to get myself into serious debt...

Better than buying a boat, I guess!

Hey Jerry,

If you look at my sig line, you'll see I went the other way. Next time your out west, drop me a note & you can catch aperture fever too...

I've got to admit Mike, the thought has crossed my mind on the "big guns" from time to time. I'm waiting for Luke to make the jump and then the floodgates come down. I'll sure look you up next time out that way. Great choices too.
