Maybe Thursday I could make it. Antenna looks good even with the heat. I would keep an eye on the wind there. If Antenna has any negative factors, it is wind.

The wind was our biggest issue prior to the clouding and lightening. Even 1 hour after sunset, the winds were still whipping things around above 10 knots. The saddest part was the continuous teasing with incredible glimpses of the Milky Way between the clouds. We all held out hope that things would blow around us, but as was stated earlier, we felt as if the storm bank was centered directly above us.

BTW - hope the rest of you got out before the rain. As Bob and I cleared the antenna buildings where the dirt road turns back North, we were hit with a pretty steady rainfall until we got to the 10. Also, anybody get a scoop on why they had the Westbound lanes closed at Hovatter?
