Good photo, Norm. I like the contrast between the "atomized" water and the dirt thrown up from where the bolt hit the berm.

RIP John. While on vacation July 4th 2013 in northern Wisconsin, he was ATVing with family and pulled ahead of everyone and took off at break-neck speed without a helmet. He lost control.....hit a tree....and the tree won. He died instantly.
The one thing that you can almost always rely on research leading to, is more research.

I do to. On another round the jug exploded so violently it ruptured the gallon jug that was about a foot away from it.
