Reaching

I took this picture as I was driving to my sister's house in New Hampshire last Thanksgiving. As you can't tell, it was a somewhat cloudy, gray day and I was getting very close to her house when I drove by what seemed like an open field. But when I looked closely, I could see a couple of beat-up, old cars and trucks sitting there in the distance. Sensing a good picture opportunity, I U-turned, parked on the side of the road and half-jogged a ways up to where the cars were. Why did I half-jog? I don't know. I guess when you're not sure if you're allowed somewhere, you just want to get in and get out quickly.

There's not much else to the story. I took a few pictures, including this amusing picture of an old truck, apparantly still registered. Note both fairly amusing bumper stickers.

So, my only point here, really, is that I discovered a new tool in Photoshop where I can screw around with all kinds of stuff, as you can see from the photo. Problem is that I did this back in November and I can't remember what I did. Shit. Oh well. Perhaps I'll remember sometime and more importantly, perhaps I'll have something more interesting to write tomorrow.

OK, howz about some recently played songs from the Pod? Yeah.
