Since I didn't get there until late Sunday morning, I had to witness all the chiles dammaged by the freeze last year, and it was very depressing. Now, if we could get a good thunderstorm, that'd be nice. I've not seen a single tornado all year - it's messing up my average! - and the lightning photography opportunities have been few and far between. Actually, not really far between - they were all in April... Not much better I can think of than photographing lightning to the smell of fresh roasting chiles.... -- Chad Gard, KB9WXQ INCHASE: http://www.inchase.org Co-founder INSWA: http://www.insw.org Unit #21
