It's a cliched shot of San Fran but i was excited to be there, so I took one too.
Not everyone has a square car in their shot though :P
On a ramble today with Kay (mathteacher) and Margaret (Reed Photo) we detoured into the TINY town of East Columbia and much to our delight found this wonderful old barn with a field of tiny purple wildflowers blooming. Many many a time I have driven right past the road to this town which is just 50 miles from home and had no idea what a gem awaits there. Margaret had been there before and knew that just about every place in the town (population 90) has a historical marker. Where these pretty flowers bloom now used to be the Columbia Hotel which Carrie Nation ran for a time, details are in the historical marker below which marks the spot. As you can tell by the trees it is still winter here in Texas but today was a beautiful springlike day and finding the windflowers blooming was a welcome sight from the starkness of winter.

♫ Lean on me ... When you're not strong ... And I'll be your friend ... I'll help you carry on ♫
The Leaning Tower of Pisa and the Duomo in the Field of Miracles in Pisa.
The Leaning Tower of Pisa (Torre Pendente) was started in 1173 as the bell tower (campanile) for the neighbouring cathedral (Duomo).
It started to lean when the third storey was added in 1274 and various attempts were made between then and its completion to stop the lean. All they did was make it more and more banana shaped.
Galileo took full advantage of the lean of the tower to conduct his experiments into gravity on its overhang.
It kept leaning further and further and was shut down in the 1990s because it was unsafe. Engineers worked their magic though and managed to correct some of the lean and make it accessible once more.
The Field of Miracles (Campo dei Miracoli) – phrase coined by Gabriele D’Annunzio – is an area in Pisa that contains four of the most important religious buildings in the town.
Located on the north western edge of Pisa it contains the cathedral (Duomo), baptistery, the Camposant Cemetery and the world famous Leaning Tower (Torre Pendente).
It’s always rammed with tourists, but rightly so as the place is just plain amazing.
On the right, you can see my mixed-media artwork hanging on garden lattice, leaned up against s post. This worked out very well for me.
I took this photograph at Mc Lean's corner during the Invited Pre-1961 Sports & GT Cars Race at the SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in May 2011. It's Ned Spieker in his 1948 Frazer Nash High Speed leading the 1955 Aston Martin DB2/4 of James Campbell. The Frazer Nash, which is chassis 421/100/004, has a 2-litre Bristol engine and was originally delivered to a Frantisek Dobry of Czechoslovakia in December 1948. After Harold Adlington and Norman Culpan finished in third place at the 1949 Le Mans 24 Hour race in Frazer Nash High Speed chassis 421/100/008 subsequent cars were known as Frazer Nash Le Mans models.

After crossing the sky every night, the moon is in its rights to take a break.
Después de recorrer el cielo cada noche, está en su derecho de tomarse un respiro.
Lean on me,
When you're not strong,
And I'll be your friend,
I'll help you carry on,
For it won't be long,
'Til I'm gonna need,
Somebody to lean on.
