Solar wouldn't do you much good where we are today. 300 miles North of the
45th parallel. 39° Farenheit and a close cloud cover. Haven't seen the sun
here since Wednesday.
Sunny Arizona? Perhaps it have some value. But, I have to drive 300
miles south of where we are presently in Anacortes, Washington by Sunday
evening to prepare for a Doctor's appt. tomorrow. Don't think it will be
very effective here. But, time will tell, I guess.
