Now I know that I have been looking at the right thing, though it's been very hard to make out. Come January 7 & 8, as it passes near the Sisters (I can always find them), I plan on driving out into the boonies a bit and trying to take some photos of it myself. Assuming good weather, which is never a safe assumption here in northern Illinois. -- Eric Schreiber www.ericschreiber.com |
