Hi, nice report. In the future though. I see you tried to post pics with it, Paste the link as you have done already and then rehighlight it, then click the IMG button. the image should show up then.

Thanks I'll try that next trip report. It was fun out in the snow yesterday. Back to work today and it was nice and sunny, blue sky and all. Have to work tomorrow, inventory, so won't get much of a chance to shoot stuff Saturday.
