Leslie's Birthday Sunrise 9/6/2006.

Lightning 4/18/2006.  No star gazing tonight!

Sunrise on 9/6/2004.  What a nice Labor Day Weekend as far as rainbows and sunrises!

         

Intense Rainbow on 9/5/2004.  Just after a couple of tree huggin' ex- park rangers chain-sawed a bunch of cedar in front of their (our) house.  Maybe there is a god?!
