Great pics Clyde. I really like the ones where the interior of the truck is glowing red. Very eye catching.

Love lights.

There's a bridge in the vicinity, that I want to replicate the shot over.
MAYBE with the truck on it, and all the chicken lights glowing (we have some trailers that run 5 on the bottom, and 5 on the top).
I was too close to them (said lights) last night, they blew out the picture something fierce (MAybe if I was a Moon shooter, I would have been able to calculate for them and adjust, but the moon and I have a love-hate relationship- I love to hate the intrusion into my night skies).

It does have a "live" road that crosses it, but I think traffic might be  (on a heavy day...) 5 cars. I should be alright to take a lane.

When in Missouri, I had a hard time getting inspired to shoot, so I started shooting bridges, joined the site, uploaded a bunch that hadn't been shot.
Love that website.
(like this one hadn't been pictured prior to me shooting it...: http://bridgehunter.com/mo/monroe/24784/ )

That's a pretty cool site Clyde. Made me think of abandoned bridges that I've see around my neck of the woods. Hmmmmm? They kind of make you think of what it must have been like when it was built. A contemplative moment if you will. Thanks for sharing the link, Safe travels. Tim

That moment when you realize you scratched the cat's head, and then your wife's head in the same way...

I took The Monster in for a bath this morning.

Where' the vanity plate Dave?

I can't order it yet. Gotta wait for the permanent plates to get here first. Right now it's still on the temp registration from buying it. DMV is slow right now because of covid. At least that's what they tell us. Soon as my permanent plates arrive, I'll order the vanity plates. Then it will probably be at least 6 months before I get those.

Some of my based range-mate LE and DA types here have taken to calling Challengers "Kekistani Rollers" in reference to the Charlottsville, VA  festivities of August '17.

Always been a VW, BMW, Porsche boy/man myself but everyone knows Dodges are the best evasion & chase rides in the world.  Used one in the '70s.  Fast AF.

Congratulations, Shotgun.  She real pretty.

Indeed I have Len. It will read:

AINTEZ

I am a German car man myself G Dog. I've owned many VWs, Porsches, Mercedes and Audis. But I've aways had a soft spot for Dodge. I had a Magnum with the Hemi before the Challenger. But I have wanted a Challenger since they came out. It's the perfect balance between old school nostalgia and modern power, reliability and convenience.As the saying goes, "Mopar or no car."
