I want to step away from photography and weather for a moment to discuss food. The other day I was channel surfing and come across the Pentagon Channel. I'm not sure when they added it to our listing but, I started watching it for a few minutes. That few minutes turned into two days with my wife watching also. Nothing was on more than 30 -60 minutes. One of the shows we watched titled Grill Sergeants. As you guessed it, it was a cooking show with active duty service members . Sergeant First Class Brad Turner was the chief for us on that episode. He is comical to watch and made some great dishes.
What's even better is the show has a website with all the recipes. All free and available for download here. I encourage you to give it a look. Bananas Alexandria is fantastic for a healthy snack and satisfies that sweet tooth. Trust me, it's replacing my not so healthy snacks. My biggest problem now is deciding on a main course. They all look and sound good!

Painting With Light
Painting With Light is a fun technique using different light sources in combination with long exposures. It's a great way to bring out your artistic abilities. The whole family can get involved too. Might be a fun date idea for you singles out there.
The typical light sources are glow sticks and flashlights, although anything can be used. Just take a walk through the camping and kids section at Walmart. You should find everything you need. I tried using a glow stick/kite combo. The end result was interesting to say the least. Just make sure you do not have power lines or trees in the area if you try the kite trick.
Below are some examples of what you can do.

4th of July
4th of July this year was great...I got to see family, eat great food, and shot off some fireworks. Seeing how the 4th was on a Monday, most of the weekend had fireworks displays around the region on different nights. My wife and I were able to attend the Sherman TX show. It really was a good show. I was able to take some pics.

Be sure to click on the photograph. It will take you to the fireworks gallery, so you can view all firework pictures.

Warming up...Slowly
I'm ready for some warmer weather. Right now Ma Nature is transition us into spring, and you know what that means. Severe weather is around the corner. We experienced severe weather not far from my house just the other day. The pic below is a small area of rotation above me. The storm was trying to produce a tornado but, it was being choked out by another storm. It was fun none the less.
