I was stunned to see someone leave an Eames chair on the sidewalk. It was gone the next day.

Does the speedo really go to 140, or is that 2 gauges?

^ Yes, the speedo shows to 140 mph, but the buggy will top out a hair under 65 mph. I wouldn't be surprised if the RZR goes over 85. It accelerates like a Bugatti though.

If you guys ever wonder what goes on behind the counter of a gas station, we make ghetto Margaritas on New Year's Day:

A few random night time photos during the pandemic shut down last year. It was sloooowww, but also created a rare opportunity to shoot some pics:






I love shooting that little taco trailer. I'm so pround of Johnny for building up his business from literally nothing.

Can’t remember if I already posted about fishing the creek in the marsh and big Al showed up and took a big red I had on the line…little scary since it ain’t easy to run in pluff mud with boots on.

Tonight I was playing with the flash in a local bar, bouncing the flash straight up behind me off a tall 50 foot tall ceiling to get this pic:





The point was to get a sense of the laser lights while I picked up my shomai ( I was standing in line to get dinner for my wife).

Then- two friend came around and posed for a pic. I turned around and took the pic. Here the flash is bounced off a ceiling 150 feet away, It is not powerful enough, and the results show. The learning point for me was just how powerful and effective my on camera flash was, even being bounced off 50 foot ceilings (but not enough for a 150 ft bankshot) . Same settings other than my bank shot.

(I guess I could buy a smart phone and get better pics, but where's the challenge in that? )
