Thursday Night Sunset
We seem to get a lot of pretty sunsets here in our Arizona home. I took this photo a little after six PM local time looking up the wash behind our house. When we were in California, we would usually get the night time coastal stratus clouds that would obscure any good colorful sunsets. Click on the image to enlarge.
Shooting Fat Man
Verna took this photo of me shooting “Fat Man,” my Glock 30, .45 caliber pistol, at the range a couple of weeks ago (note the ejected brass flying out of the breech). We were shooting at the target posted on our new home-built target stand. We also shot Verna’s 9mm S&W 908s and our new Wyndham Weaponry AR-15 .223 caliber carbine. We had a lot of fun that day.
Next week we will be heading down the Cabela’s in Glendale to pick up some ammo and cleaning supplies for the new rifle. We also will be getting some home maintenance stuff from Lowe’s while we’re down in the west valley. The dogs will be getting baths and a Bear cut. 😉 Click on the image to enlarge.
Classic Model A Ford in 3D
Verna took several pictures of this extremely well restored Model A today. We were going to the local discount store for a few supplies and saw this car parked in the lot out front. Somebody certainly applied some tender loving care to this beautiful classic. We do not recall seeing this particular classic at the car show the other day, but we may have missed it since we were a late arrival and some of the classics had already left.
I got out my little camera and snapped an image pair to be merged into this 3D image. Of course, you will need your free pair of 3D glasses to view the anaglyph image. In case you do not have 3D glasses, you can view the 2D version here.
