We just missed each other.
That's about the time I broke for lunch, prior to hitting the car show across the street. Nice find - all I got was a fairly non-descript wasp.

Sorry I missed you
Was only there for about a hour, wish they didn't close so early.

They do close too early.
So have you tried the park across the street? I scouted it during the car show, and it looks great for dragonflies. Will visit sometime in the next couple of weeks.

Broke for lunch?
Broke from doing what? BTW this is one of the guys with a D800!, so you might wanna take a "break" and buy him lunch.

Actually, I just snapped. Would you rather I braked for lunch?
I am aware of Craig's gear and have an ophthalmologist with two of those cameras. I don't take him to lunch, but do put my eyes in his hands.
