Driving out of the nature refuge I saw this old GMC flatbed truck sitting on the side of the road. On the door you can barely make out the previous owner, Theodore Strawn Inc. Many years of sitting in the hot Florida sun has not done this beat up truck any favors!

Bodie, California. It would seem obvious for most people that climbing on this old truck would not be a good idea. However, there are those who need a sign advising them to not climb on the truck. The sign only stops the ones who can read and who actually care about preserving such a relic.
Rust adds so much character. Interesting green light over the windshield remaining from a set of three lights. I am guessing that this may date back to about 1935.
Sorry, I uploaded a different photo earlier and decided I liked this one and this crop better. I'm not really excited about the photos I took but for all the huffing and puffing walking back up the hill from the creek, I figured I had to upload something.
This was at the "Truck Stop" in Show Low, Arizona, USA.. A fun place of different foods, drinks, bands, arts, crafts, and games. The theme is old trucks and they are parked all around with many being used as seating, stage, or decoration.
This is the wood truck by the El Portal Luxury Hotel in Sedona. My best guess is a 1946 (1947?) Ford One Ton Flatbed Jailbar. This is our favorite place to stay in Sedona. Small and elegant.

A photo of Flatbed Falls, near Tumbler Ridge, taken a few years ago. I don't think I will get a better photo because people seem to think it is ok to leave their garbage behind here and it is tough to take a clean shot now.

Here is my monthly non long exposure shot. While many of us would like to have seen more sea fog at the Golden Gate in recent months, there have been a few key events to marvel at. It's a very simple phenomenon, to be sure, but makes for interesting photography, nonetheless.
The thing with this moment (and do mean moment) was the way the hill just seemed to grow a fuzzy wool sweater of fog.
Thanks for having a look!
