Do you know of Mt Helix in (perhaps) La Mesa? I remember being there once around 1963/64 and could see the snow in the distant east. - -- Jim - http://www.hemenway.com Jerry Lehrer wrote: > > Jim > > It was not that warm, it was about 70 degrees F, or 21 C. > > And I did walk way out, on our lush, green lawn, to get more pics > to the south. > > Jerry > > Jim Hemenway wrote: > > > So, you were shooting from your patio... in hot, stripling SoCal! > > > > And you call that OUT taking pictures???? : ) > > -- > > > > Jim - http://www.hemenway.com > > > > Jerry Lehrer wrote: > > > > > > Seth and Austin, > > > > > > I was out taking pictures today!
