Because it was 70 degrees outside, so I took my fat ___ for a good 3 mile walk around the city.

What city is that and what is the contraption that's green in the center?

Shot this with an old Sony I used to have, forget what model it was?

That is Downtown Cincinnati Ohio. The contraption is an elevator with all its internal workings exposed via glass structure. And the one to the right of it, is a stairway. They go to the parking garage and tunnel where they actually held Scion Exposed for our region last year.

And nice capture of the feeding.

Two exposures: the sky is actually a picture of blueberry and strawberry yogurt, swirled together delicately. the bottom is just an underexposure of a football stadium.

It's cool to see once... After that, you just find the city a missmanged dump. lol. But to be honest, I've lived her too long, so I hate the place.

I think it becomes that way anywhere you live for too long. People always comment about the Arch. I'm like yeah, wow! We have tree's more interesting. I'd really like to move somewhere warmer and near the coast. Besides the fact that I love the ocean and the beautiful weather, the car scene is much better in area's like that too.

Ha ha! And if it was durring the day the city probably looked like a dump! It's beautiful at night though.

I think the prettiest area in MO is the southwest Ozark Mountain area. You have some huge rolling hills with beautiful greenery.

Actually I spent 20 minutes on the freaking bridge not going anywhere... Why you ask? Because MO DOT decided it'd be a GREAT place to park trucks during 9am traffic... I sat there long enough to take this photo:



Little further down the road was this mess:



Also where I found the sign that said "bump" and sent a Porsche Cayman and I in the air... Bump? I think not! Jump, is more likely.

Now I did like the rest stop:


But before that, I had a serious WTF moment...

Adult Store and Bowling. These two go hand and hand... I mean either way, you're gonna leave after you've put your fingers in some holes... (hahahaha)

Living in Ky, the Ozarks were nice, but no where near as nice as driving through Central/Southern Ky. Rolling hills and mountains are everywhere. But you've got to remember, we are on the edge of the Appellation Mountains.

You were on the Popular Street Bridge, that's always a cluster because 3-4 interstates converge to go across. There in the midst of building a new bridge which is a suspension type with two huge towers which should look pretty kewl. LMAO, yeah out west on 44 or 70 is littered with "Adult" super stores. Makes it look like we're a bunch of promiscuous pedophiles.

And nice shots Jon, both are some schweet rides!

Lol I see them a lot. There's a shop here called MiniTec and they're known for swapping in B-series Honda motors in them.

These 2 Porsche 904s stole the show, at least for me. I wasn't gonna post them since I hate parking lot shooting.
