Venus traversing the sun: Took this with my iPhone looking at a telescope projecting screen. This won't happen again till 2117. The smaller spots are sun spots actually larger than Venus in size but much further away.

Hey StevoRocket, thanks for the info on the Grossglockner. I think I'll go drive that on my next 4 day weekend!! I'll hit the museum at Gmund and then the Grossglockner. I never would have known about the road, Thanks Frank

Crossing Diefenbaker on the Riverhurst ferry

The car drew allot of attention from the boys from the local Lucky Lake Hutterite Colony...... Two thought it was a Ferrari one thought but wasn't sure that it was a Porsche! He won an extra bottle of Dandelion wine for his knowledge!
