6. Hey Ptah!
Wondered if you got washed away. Didn't see you around here last night when the AZ crowd was talking about the weather. Did you hear? 75 mph sustained winds on Kitt Peak! Saw lots of Tucson amounts over an inch on the rain log site this morning. we had 98/100 at 7 this morning. yahoo!

11. Yeah, the gusts above 140 on Kitt Peak were amazing.
Surprisingly there was very little damage to the observatory.

Here in town, close to the UofA farm, it was fairly mild.

I like wet for a change of pace.

Any hail or snow out at your place?

13. its drizzling again
supposed to snow after 11, may close the interstate - perfect conditions for black ice
I LOVE it when the interstate gets closed - so quiet. Like it must have been 100 years ago.

7. Nice-looking horse, too
:D

Oh, and even a cell phone pic can eventually look good:




Just some gamma, brightness and contrast cleanup with a hint of blue and red added. I use ThumbsPlus for quick image cleanup instead of loading PhotoShop. Maybe a little too much red as the sky went a little pink back there...

10. I use my little Canon Powershot more than my Rebel XTI
because it's small and takes great photos, too :)

Perhaps now is the time to get out there taking some "real" photos? I haven't taken pics during the rain in a long time, partly because I don't know how the autofocus will react to a plastic bag over the camera ;)

16. DID ALL THAT COME FROM YOUR HORSE!?!?!?!?
.
One of my favorite lines, upon hearing someone say, "I gotta pee
like a racehorse" is, "You mean on all fours?"

19. Um... I'm pretty sure that horse is a mare (maybe a gelding)...
.
...so it doesn't have caballus.
