Under the heading of if it moves, race it, I present the "Mennonite 500"



It not uncommon to get behind the horse drawn buggy's here. I just put my flashers on and wait for the appropriate time to pass. A lot of these folks are frineds.

What made me smile was the two lead buggies were racing a bit and the buggy of the left deftly executes a pass - seconds later he swings back to the right.

Fun stuff from last week.

During the Daytona Classic 24 last month a pair of bald eagles landed in the infield during one of the races. Weird.

Also very weird, a 1976 Husky 125CR GP showed up... albeit very little of it so far.
Seems to have followed my Son home.

Great shots! thanks for sharing. This is a cool time of year, the creek is starting to freeze over and the sunsets can be full of color.

You've got a good eye for interesting shots and compostion, Skip! Get a decent camera, shoot in RAW/NEF and with some photo editing software, and you could do some nice work.

My software doesn't have any filter accessories right now, but makes a difference with your blue tinted shot:

Oso slide
5 years, 9 months later



My Son and I drove through there less than an hour before it released, still gives me shivers.
We were headed up to my favorite playground for a Father/Son hike out to Ross lake environs.


Still oblivious to the devastation we just missed in these
