Wild Ride
I stole these (okay, I have permission) off of guest photographer John Brandt’s Flickr photostream. I love this car, so I couldn’t pass up the opportunity. The photo at right shows more of the car itself. Click on it to see it larger.
I posted a photo of the back end of it back in 2007, and happen to know the guy who drives it is pretty spiffy. You’d have to be to have a stuffed animal on the top of your car, wouldn’t you?
Yes, yes you would. So hi to said spiffy person if he’s reading. I’m not sure if I should reveal your not-so-secret identity.

Guest photographer John Brandt took today’s photo of a dead tree (or part of a tree) in Wilderness Park he doesn’t expect to survive another winter. I haven’t been through that park in some time. I really need to do it again very soon. Once the temperature cools down a bit, that is.

Today is the April 1st City Daily Photo theme day, this time for the color red. I spotted this bright red 1950′s Chevy Bel Air station wagon (so I’ve been told, anyway… I’m not a car person) in a parking lot the other day, and I thought it fit the bill. I took all the More >
