I love the different colors of the leaves and trees when it's fall. It's my favorite time of year. Beautiful weather and scenery. :)

Things around here in the last month. The VW is a very rare Phaeton, but I think a V8 not a W12... the W12s had badges announcing that fact I'm pretty sure. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_Phaeton

That jar I use for a coffee tamper :lol: for this. So it's empty. It's the perfect diameter, the lid is anyway.

Yea five lights. Every year they put in more and more on these poles around the city. If it helps people see the status, hey why not.

Once level 5 hits all those lights will he in Nostalgia museums.

And I’ll still be wiggling the T5 stick and armor plating the autonomous vehicles at traffic lights

A few photos from our 25th anniversary weekend trip to Kennebunkport, Maine. We escaped the rain and had a wonderful time exploring the area. We took Frieda the 240 which made the trip even more special.

Nice pics, fun trip. I have some good friends in Portland. I love boats and docks - I visited Annapolis once, boat city.
