A slight alteration of theme, at Paul Wigton’s suggestion: Road Photo of the Day. I hope you enjoy it.
This was shot last year on Montana Highway 279 northwest of Helena. The question is who shot it? I know it was taken with Mark Collien’s camera, but I can recall taking a shot like this somewhere on that trip. I know both of us drove portions of this road, and I was playing with his Nikon whenever I was in the passenger seat. I know I did my best to grab shots at the end of the day that I knew I snapped, so perhaps this is one… who knows? Mark?
If it is your shot Mark apologies for the blanket application of my copyright. 😉
*STOP THE INSANITY*!!!!!!
Yer makin’ me ‘orny for Tweety to be OTR cg! RRrrr……!
Sigh…..the day I can finally motor along SOME damn road in my Jag…well, I’ll not be ashamed of shedding a tear……
Just get it done Paul.
No worries, pretty sure that’s one of mine. In fact it’s the current desktop image on my MacBook 🙂
I remember going down that road waiting for the right combination of curves and the road sign before grabbing the shot.
Maybe one of these, will inspire you further Paul:

Chuck/Mark, et al: I’M working on it! I can only go so fast!!
🙂
In fact, there are many things that have lit a fire under my tubby arse, but the latest one was a comment by Peter Crespin, on J-L: it hit me *hard.*
In response to my *reportage* of the car having been out of service since 1983 and my frustration at the series of events and actions that led it to be so, he said:
“Too many years undriven and too few left to drive it.”
Shit.
So, although I *should* use ALL my tax refund for debt reduction, I am simply not going to allow another summer to go by w/o SOME level of Jaguar to drive…DAMMIT!
For reasons I won’t divulge I have recently been made aware of just how short a time we have on this planet, ergo my tossing to the winds some fiduciary responsibility/caution, in homage to what’s left of my life.
Ergo, I’m pulling off of J-L, due to a few flaming a**holes on it have finally pissed me off past the point of tolerance, and because I need all the time I can get to get this mutha#$%&!ing thing DONE! If you don’t mind, Chuck, I will avail myself of your website to keep those who are interested up-to-date.
To that end, I expect to have Tweety ready to go to the paint shop by the end of May, latest.
Onwards and upwards…..
