Oh and I know I'm really late, but for any of you NASCAR fans, here is a link to some of the images I shot of the Kobalt Tools 400 that was at LVMS a couple of weeks ago. :-)

Enjoy!

It's about 35 degrees here now but it feels like zero with the wind chill. It's blowing hard and gusty here on the mountain, is it like that all over the state?

We had a wet snowfall and it froze up in the trees. Now with the wind there are lethal clumps falling here and there.

Thanks Craig. Much appreciated.

Now I just have to make sure I get my creds for NHRA in April and hopefully the AMA Supercross in May. I think those are my next big events. I'm going out to shoot the Wranglers game (ice hockey) tonight.

Those are awesome pictures Mat! I'm jealous. Wish we could've gone, but we go to the drags in Oct. not to mention, I think that NASCAR is more expensive. LOL! Were you using a digital camera or a 35mm? What film &/or shutter speed did you use? The clarity is amazing! Good job : )

Goodevening everyone! I think I was having computer withdrawls. LOL!

Thanks to everyone that sent me well wishes. I still have numbness/tingling in my left hand/arm & it not getting any better, but not getting any worse (yet). I did my EKG & bloodwork (no stroke or clots) & my chest xrays (no COPD) - those came out normal. I go in for my MRI's on my entire spine in about 2 weeks to check for nerve damage/compression fractures. I'm hoping it's something fairly simple that won't require surgery, but I guess we'll see what they say. I'll update as I find out more.

Good evening Nevada,
Wow Donna, was this something that just came out of nowhere. I hope everything is alright. I dislike hospitals, them & jails are on the same plane as far as I'm concerned. The big difference is in the hospital they will drug you so the time goes by faster. Donna you sure have helped a great deal to bring the Nevada Chapter alive. I can't believe the Nevada Chapter has more posts on the chat board this month than Arizona. A first since I have been around.
