- An experiment in writing with a red flashlight. It worked, after several attempts and a clean up in PS Elements.

- Fire! This was a large grass fire which started after a welding accident on the railroad. Fanned by soaring temps and strong winds, it briefly threatened to come our way.
-
- A very nice 20" Dob, in the Houston AS/FBAC/Texas AS area. I think it's Barbara Wilson's Spacewalk.
