JBER?

My acronyms are Army, and ancient.

That’s what she said.

The joint base is fairly recent – an old friend of mine spent his AF deployment on radar duty during the Viet Nam years at one of the predecessor bases, Elmendorf.

We were back on Hartwell for sundown tonight. Beautiful but I left my phone home.

Not quite sunset, but still pretty

Sunset, but no paddlers

Last night at Silver Beach. 87 degrees at 8 pm but just delightful if you are standing in Lake Michigan.

Lovely photo - the calm before the storm?

Much nicer than last night up here, where we had a tornado warning (EF-0 made a brief touch down in the forest) followed by 3.5 inches of rain. I normally don’t have such exciting nights. :wink:

I hope you weren’t in a tent.

No tent. Huddled in a hallway next to the bathroom in case I needed to take cover in the tub, watching the radar and red arrow pointed in my general direction until the power went out. Funnel lifted after traveling six miles taking out trees. There were three more in other areas, again with trees suffering most damage. Still thousands without power

Another reason I don’t like hot and humid weather: when a cold front moves in, it gets very noisy,

Just a few:

Awesome pics. The best one is - all of them, it’s a tie. I think string hit it when he said that we’re lucky to have enough time outside that we can actually transport ourselves into other people’s pictures a little bit.

Hey Rookie, glad you are safe. Sounds like you got the rain you were hoping for. :wink:
