Monday Photo Shoot

Fresh when it gets here from Julie Barrett
Monday, March 31, 2008


Photograph something so unusual that it's seldom seen, by you or by the rest of us. I'm looking for stuff that provokes the reaction, "Now there's something you don't see every day!"

Hope you don't mind if I delve into the archives for this one. It's a rainy spring day - not terribly unusual for this time of year in this neck o' the woods. Interestingly, both of my shots involve transportation.

This was about three years ago during one of our tips to Austin.

And this was taken just about a year ago when we were shopping for a good used car for Chris:

Uh, no, we did not buy it. Could you just imagine what a teenage boy would do with that? Get your head out of the gutter: Ours would have turned it into a mobile geek gaming center. Come to think of it, that would be kind of cool.

Now I've got "Suicide Is Painless" stuck in my head. Pretty cool, though!

We've got a kid in our neighborhood who drives an old ambulance. He's a gamer so it's really cool on the inside. Some neighbors haven't taken to it and have gone to the city to have them issue a citation for parking a commercial vehicle in a private neighbor. Good thing you didn't get it...

When I was playing Werewolf in college, we always thought that a Fedex or UPS truck would be best for hiding in. That ambulance would work as well, although it would not be as unnoticeable! Also, I am amused that you came up with an animal in a vehicle, since I had one in my entry too!

I think the game center would have been really cool! I know my boys would love it. It would have been just a bet too creepy too though.
