A Storm Rolling In

Gentle Readers and Dear Friends thank you so much for all your super comments - and since I am stitching away on things I can't show you yet, I thought I would share a couple more snaps from my trip to Florida...

If you remember my Mom has a Sebring convertible...


This is what she has, I lifted the snap from the Internet.  So this is what I was driving around in all last week  - so my usually pale magnolia pallor is gone and I am brown as a nut.  Where this is going, and it is going somewhere, is that I could hold the camera above my head and take pictures while driving around or stopped.....  not the safest for sure, but when you can only go the speed limit at about 20 mph there's not much danger in getting a snap or two.

Here is a snap I took at the top of Granada Bridge headed west......


Its a bit crooked but you get the whole sky and the great cloud cover moving in.....

Here is a second snap taken on the Granada Bridge downward slope, 
looking up the Halifax River north...


It is a real challenge to get a good or passable snap using one hand, but I think these turned out pretty good.

There you go sports fans - thanks again for stopping by, do stop again!!

Take care,
edgar

  2. We used to hire Sebrings on our Florida trips although the last couple of times we've not bothered. One Christmas is was so surreal driving down the 75, roof down and Let It Snow playing on the radio!
    Did your birthday chart arrive ok?
