I'm glad to hear that my photos are being enjoyed. Beats the h*ll outta just shoot a buncha stuff, puttin it into an album and puttin it on the shelf. The camera seems to be back in working order after cleaning the lens contacts with a rough cloth. Thanks for your photos, TC. Great stuff. I wanted to get a shot of that silver Deuce, but never caught it standing still.
Next. Weather report. Last nite, where I was camping (up on the side of the mountain above the Bend in the Road...I'll have to find another spot...what used to be nice and secluded is now overpopulated and noisy) it rained like crazy, including a lotta wind and lightning. Land's End Lynda tells me that her security crew was...uhhh...scared to sh*tless, especially since one of the young ladies on the crew is now known as "Sparky" after being struck by lightning a coupla years ago. (Holy Sh*t!!! And she's still comin back to work with Lynda and her gang! That's guts! Big time!
)
Anyway, the rain missed the salt. Right now (8:30 ayem) it's about 85, overcast with a slight breeze. Wunderground sez it's 26% humid, RtR's "weather finger" sez it's closer to 40%. Radar shows that the cell has passed to the east and has once again left this beautiful salt in great shape. A few soft spots are developing on the access road from Land's End to the pits, but not bad at all.
The local constabulary was visiting at Land's End this morning, which meant they weren't writing tickets. Last nite there was a cruiser lurking onI-80, just west of the port of entry station. As Mama used to say, "a word to the wise is sufficient."
The Treit & Davenport (Target 550) area was a little wind-blown, so some elf-dude sneaked in and moved stuff around a bit, sorta like he does with the website. LOL!
Off to shoot more photos. The Salt Cat team just pulled in with their Airstream transport trailer and a Buick-powered lakester in it. I better go check it out.
