Nice. Hope the OFAC guys aren't skyscraper enthusiasts, I'd hate for you to get in trouble after the fact (they actually do enforce it, although less now. Was enforced more heavily under the W administration). I actually bought tickets to do that once. My plan was PR, to DR, to Cuba - less chance of trouble - but I chickened out at the last minute. Probably good anyways, I never would've gotten security clearances if I had gone. State Dept. frowns on that sort of stuff... Very jealous, though. Looking forward to your pics.

I guess the Trinity site is only open two days per year now for special event tours. Was okay though, there are a million things to do in the area and just not enough time for them all. Unfortunately, I was too early for most blooms - just the yucca are going now, and the rest might skip this year entirely. It's just been too dry for too long. There's no water anywhere, even where there should be.
Yeah, I've fallen behind on my South America photos. I really should do that. I got annoyed with myself after a quick photo run-through, realized I had my ISO set stupidly low in the dark dank jungle, which screwed up a lot. But my goal is to get caught up here in April/May. Not much to do in the muddy season, so it seems like a good time.
