    We are so fortunate (from my perspective) to have a pretty clear view to the west, so we do get some amazing sunsets.

    Unfortunately, there's a pretty large, and heavily wooded, hill to the east of us, so we don't get much in the way of sunrises... those, too, can be pretty psychedelic in New England.

    1) Been a little dry in New England (having both a well and a fairly large vegetable garden, I may be a little more sensitive to this than some folks).

    2) I don't know what the component is, either -- it has a lot of small signal tubes, so it might be a preamp... but it might be a power amp, too.

    I do know what this is (these are), though.

    The turkeys do that, too -- well, most of them.

    Yeah, we've had a nice phalanx of bucks lately, kinda nice to see.

    six minutes of exposure time, and you can tell that the earth really does revolve on its axis.

    Failed to capture any meteor streaks on the exposures, tho'. Saw some, but they were too dim and/or too fast to leave an image on the exposure :-(

    And some of my fellow residents of North Hampton question my reasons for pushing so hard to maintain the Town's "dark sky standard" in the Zoning Ordinance and Site Plan Regulations.

    Nice shot, Dr. Hardy!

    Silverstar mountain in SW Washington. We were facing south looking at Mt Hood in Oregon. It was an amazing experience and for a brief moment on our hike down the whole forest looked like it was on fire from the setting sun. My 6 year old was in awe and so were my wife and I.

    Don't we live in such a great area for awesome scenery? I'm just slightly north of WA State up here in Abbotsford and I'll tell ya, we got a stunning view of the north face of Mount Baker from here and all we have to do is drive about 35 minutes east and your in the Cascade mountains...and all their breathtaking vistas.

    I am in heaven out here! There are so many outdoor activities to do between the ocean and mountains and all with incredible views.

    My family and I have been doing a lot of hiking since April and I am always in awe of where we live! My six year old daughter is an absolute trooper and always up for a good hike and just loves being in the outdoors.

    I lived and played in Colorado for 11 years before I moved here and I feel it does not hold a candle to what we have going on in the great Pacific Northwest. It's an amazing place to live!

    [/quote]What? There... You... Blasphemy[/quote]

    I traveled to every corner of Colorado when I lived there so I know that there are some incredibly beautiful places in the state. For me, it is just the diversity of beauty out here. The ocean, glacier capped mountains, countless waterfalls, rivers with seasonal salmon runs the Palouse out east..... I could go on.

    Oh wait, Denver has the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest. Yep, Colorado is better.

    Indeed! But Terri has done a spectucular job tidying up the hovel. Ne'er laid eyes upon her, but a pleasant note is on the nightstand upon my arrival at night. Querrying me about her performance.
    Not one complaint about flatulence residue. Top marks!

    My wife and I went to Music Fest Northwest's Project Pabst last night and it was amazing. We stood next to the sound booth for Tame Impala and is sounded incredible. Parquet Courts were also incredible. Good times were had by all!
