I didn't go to Mount Diablo. Part of it was the book. Part of it was also a last minute plan to get together with a fellow who wants to hire me for conducting wildlife photography workshops internationally, and who also may enter into a business partnership with me.

I'll get those yellow globe lilies on Mount Diablo, soon.

Is a partnership appealing to you? International workshops sound interesting though, don't they?

you mean your going to miss our great weather we're finally gonna get mtrspeed?!

I'm not sure "appealing" is the word, but I do think it is necessary for my success and for my safety, in this business.

Hello, WD! Good evening.

How's the Nuclear Planet Cutter coming?

hey, wd! don't rub it in. i can't believe i'm missing the first day of ~70F for the year! on the other hand, it's supposed to be 85F down here on Saturday. on the other other hand, there's a big difference between 85 w/ work and 70 w/ play!

it's going Mike! hopefully some more fine tuning next week.

I'm looking forward to it mtrspeed, maybe time for a bbq <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Well back in febuary I had enough cash to buy an ash-1 but then I picked up a MOD7 and the Dog Father. I am grateful though because I wouldnt have been able to buy the DF or MOD7 if I had bought a ash.
Over time I have built up enough cash to buy an ash and I was going to buy one at the pro show at the begining of the month, the pro show has be cancelled possibly forever because the manager of them stole money from the PRO organization and left the state leaving behind huge debts.
It seems like someone doesnt want me to have a ash.
Anyways, here is the cash I will be ordering an ash with tonight.

I just hope the mailman doesnt lose the package. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />

Now I just have to figure out what combo to get.
Can you guys help me out?

get the one with the handle and the blade... that one seems like it's the best <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

nah, really, it's all personal preference. just go with your gut.

idk.
but mags always seemed to look too thick for me.
on a thick knife.
personally, I don't really like sage blade either.

it's up to you though.
*cough* *cough* black and tan g10!!! *cough*
but seriously.. the one with the handle and blade is awesome.
