Sorry, no Dianas. They had been seen on Cathey's Creek Road on the
previous Saturday, but they would not put in an appearance on the count day.No
crescents came close to Ron Gatrelle's description of the Mimic Crescent.
Next year we are planning to repeat the 3rd Wednesday in July with the
next day as rain date, and split the group to cover some likely areas
missed this year. So put us on our calendar, folks.
