Nate,

I am glad that you are Sooooo dedicated to production, profit and keeping your clients happy. However, I believe strongly that if I am working in the rain more than a couple of times each year, then I am not living life to its fullest! I believe that the only time we should be outside when stuff is falling from the sky is when we get caught headed back to the house. Yes, it's "waterproof". Nothing is ever guaranteed waterproof; this stuff is too expensive to be tempting the gods with. I have a friend that says "Just because they make it in your size; that doesn't mean you should ware it!":);)

Hey, Steve, you are all wet!! (Grin)
All kidding aside, I have had my GPS base ruined 2x by thunderclouds, full of water, that poured all over my base, suddenly cooling it. It was a very hot afternoon shower, both times. I was several miles from base, down long trails and roads.
I decided to stay and get the shot. My t2 got buckets of water on it from heaven. I've got the best gear in the world. I'm gonna get it. T2 sucked in water.
I've got a t3 due this week. I want to protect it just a little more than I did the t2. Some of the T2 green cases were plumb junk. I'm nervous about wet base syndrome.
I'm working on a way to do this.
He who observes the weather shall get no work done.
Now, go get a towel!
;) Nate
