Came on last night. Good thing I was out of town overnight for work and I'm not sure how my other half would have handled generator duty.

Power back on here yesterday afternoon.Still see lots of trees on downed power lines driving around.What a mess.Can't believe we had more power outages than the ice storm of '98.I was so surprised to hear that.

We only had a flicker in the lights the night of the storm, other than that no power outage for us. We are close to Skowhegan.

Welcome to the Maine board. Skowhegan is a nice area. Used to race dirt bikes there in the 80's and 90's.

God evening Maine.Check out my new cam.



Got the rokinon 24mm f/1.4 lens for astrophotography.After a few hours learning the camera menu and settings,then the understanding the software for night shots,I took this one around midnight last night.



Once I decided to stop fighting the street and house lights during my tests at the house,and utilize them instead,I got that.

I'm getting the hang of it! This is a load of fun! I'm going to have some nice high quality pics for my travels and adventures from now on guys.Long overdue for graduating from the little point and shoots lol.
Lots of southern National Parks and Monuments are the list for this winter.

Looks like it takes really nice pictures.
You're going to have to share more photos of your travels from now on because we now know you have a good camera.

No snow here just north of Skowhegan. I'm not really looking forward to driving my new 2017 F350 Dually on salt covered roads. this beast takes a lot of time to wash.

I haven't had the opportunity to visit Belfast in many years... Is Perry's nut house still there? I think the last time I was there was in 1999 when I was installing new computer network gear at the then MBNA complex.
