P.S. Even though there's still a chance of rain today, we seem to have escaped the brunt of the tropical depression; and I haven't heard any news that it seriously affected any regions in the Southwest.
Commenting on your own post--man, you've sunk to new depths of desperation. :-) We're having nice weather here for the first day of autumn, too; upper 70s, low humidity, and cloudless blue skies. It could stay like this forever and be paradise. I like the image of the flycatcher, but the image isn't detailed enough for an i.d.
Just a note: if you don't hear from me for a few days, I may be "laid up." I may have had a heart attack three weeks ago, and I'm (finally) going to see the doctor tomorrow. I can see them whisking me to the hospital. If I don't get "whisked," I'll let you know, Packrat.
Good luck, Scott. Sure hope it wasn't a heart attack. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
I have my fingers crossed too, Scott.
