I am not to sure what is going to happen with that. The line from the north ran into the line going west. I wonder if the enerhy is going to be forced south of town or be forced west, they look to be equal strength

Just off Drexel, near the nature trail.

Never officially went out, but it sure got dim. Been fine for a bit though.

Looks like more development out west.

You can set it to take 20 in a row then it stops to load to the cf card takes a few seconds. the I reset and hold the button until it stops. It was just a matter of luck.
