djfvhjbhlfdjldjgfjgndf thank you for sharing your photos! They ROCK! I love storms!

These were taken only 20 minutes before the storm came through. I didn't even know there was a storm coming. I could see the humidity changing through the lense as I took the photos. It began to sprinkle as I finished taking pictures. By the time I got home it was pouring. My girls went out and played in it.

These are from The Smith St Highbridge.

and 1 from my run about an hour prior to the storm.

is it just me, or do the message background take up the whole page? The background covers up the blue on my computer.

Very nice pics.... CM, Gotta love that exposure time with lightning. I've been going nuts taking pics all over town. Steph must be going crazy by now with all my attempts!

TY OTiS - Did you take the one in your avatar? It's fun playing with the exposure times. But it never fails that as soon as the shot is done a huge bolt of lightning shoots right in front of your lens. I had mine balanced on top of my camcorder this time so I didn't miss a thing. Other than the thunder, all you can hear me say is DAMN over and over again when I miss a shot. :eyeroll:

I tried to show my brother where the infamous Whitewater Estates is (real estate that Clinton got in trouble over). We ended up on the wrong side of Crooked Creek. Here is a picture of Whitewater Estates from the opposite side of the creek.

Those pix are awesome Gramps!! Really. When I think of Arkansas I think of those pictures. Truly beautiful.

THX - Prolly the funniest part of that flick. Egg-Za-Lent!

I watched Revenge of the Sith and 8 Crazy Nights on DVD tonight with the kid. The copy I have of Star Wars 3 is unbelievable DVD quality. Got it the second day it came out! I'm thinking George himself put it out there this time since it's such good quality and sound. I'll still buy it when it comes out. And I'm sure he knows that too. Geeks like us have to keep our collection in tact.

Also watched a show on CBS called Fire Me or something like that. Pretty funny. A reality show where people try to get themselves fired from a brand new job before 3pm on their first day. Good summer concept show.

I'm not too homophobic to admit that I'm watching Brittney and Kevin right now tho :sheepish:

crap tv is normally good... but i have hard time enjoying any tv lately...

"Fire Me", although it was funny, i think is kinda sucky though... while theres people out here trying super-hard to get new and better jobs, people are making TV shows about people purposely trying to LOSE their job?

To answer you CM yes, I took the shot in my avatar a few weeks ago. I caught that one just out front of my work. I didn't leave the shutter open though for that one. I let the camera roll and take 40 shots in a row. hopping to catch one by accident.

Got a good :smile:

This camera I got will take 40 shots in one hit. So it's a good deal.

I need to find a nice high point that I can get some storm shots though. No city lights and no trees.

I have some low areas out west by me that work. I've heard the Mall of America parking garages works as well for southern storms.

Yeah we try to do at least one summer and one fall trip.

My Grandmother loves riding on the St Croix. The food isn't bad either. So I'm glad to see nice weather in the plans.

As for todays plans - after I head out this morning and get some "dish" addresses I'll be taking the boys to see Batman :smile:

No, it's just an animated gif.

Bull Shoals Lake

Haven't heard of Bull Shoals in a long time. Used to go there once in awhile when I lived in MO. That and Lake of the Ozarks.

To be honest with you, I don't like those lakes much. They're pretty nasty compared to MN lakes. It's beautiful country though.

OTiS

IMHO it doesn't get better then MN lakes....

There are a few overall spots in Colorado I enjoyed. Of course I was born there so I'm bias.

Haven't had the pleasure of fishing/boating in Montana yet so no opinion there but I've heard lots of good things for them as well.

Florida = nastiest lakes I know.

Grandpa Dan Zachary

They're pretty nasty compared to MN lakes.

What? You can see into the water more than 20 feet. The bottom is rock not mud like in MN, so the water is clear not muddy. Also, some of these southern MN lakes (Byllesby, French, etc.) get that green shit floating in them, not so in Bull Shoals. Great fishing also. At least it is that way in the Arkansas part of the lake near the dam, I don't think that I have ever seen the Missouri part of the lake though.

Why do you think it is nasty?

You can see into the water more than 20 feet.

I don't recall that. I recall the lakes there being muddy and smelly. I remember the first time I went to Lake of the Ozarks, I was like "People swim in this?".

Oh, and it was Table Rock lake I was thinking of that's also down on the border of AR, not Lake of The Ozarks. Lake of the Ozarks is north of Springfield.

Honestly, the only good lake I remember down there was Lake Springfield, which was actually a reservoir for the city of Springfield.

Like I said, maybe in Missouri, but definitely not in Arkansas. Very rocky soil.

Somewhere Out There

An American Tale Soundtrack

Somewhere out there

Beneath the pale moonlight

Someone's thinkin' of me

And loving me tonight

Somewhere out there

Someone's saying a prayer

That we'll find one another

In that big somewhere out there

And, even though I know

How very far apart we are

It helps to think we might be wishin'

On the same bright star

And, when the night wind starts to sing

A lonesome lullaby

It helps to think we're sleeping

Underneath the same big sky

Somewhere out there

If love can see us through

Then we'll be together

Somewhere out there

Out where dreams come true

And, even though I know

How very far apart we are

It helps to think we might be wishin'

On the same bright star

And, when the night wind starts to sing

A lonesome lullaby

It helps to think we're sleeping

Underneath the same big sky

Somewhere out there

If love can see us through (love can see us through)

Then we'll be together

Somewhere out there

Out where dreams come true





This was from the bonfire last night in my backyard ~ you can see the moon in the sky -next to it was a planet (star)
