After I got my new mount in February, I kept it under the cover of darkness.
It was inside the house, and only taken outside in the dark of night.
That lasted about 2 weeks....
Then one night this one solitary little dark cloud happened by, and it hung there long enough for me to take notice of it.
After that, we got 6 WEEKS of rain, with a few nights of clouds that didn't rain. I would have sworn Brush growing season was off due to drowning the brush!
Well, obviously it takes more than Biblical rain to kill the brush, given the fires we've had.
But in the long run, our mounts can outlive the weather. We may not like it, but so can we.
But I certainly share your frustrations Jim.
After the Spring rains, it seemed like the only time clouds shown up was at night.
And only after I was half way through, or just finishing my modeling.
Life's not easy for us at the bottom of the pond trying to look through the murk.
Better nights are coming.
