Dream Cruise - part 2 - hood ornaments.

These pics need no explination, just things on hoods that look cool.

Dream Cruise - cars

Most dream cruise's have perfect weather, not today. It was an on and off drizzle until the afternoon so we started with the Mustang display on 9mile, an umbrella in one hand and camera in the other. Later in the day the rain finally drifted away and the rest of the cruise was pretty nice.

My favorite of the mustangs, a FT500 KR.

Laurie likes them red with white strips.

One of the new Boss 302's.

Either this truck has huge tires or Laurie shrunk in the rain.

A sweet very early vette.

Another nice old vette.

Fast cars and slow police? (they actually made it through traffic much faster than any cars).

One of many beautiful Cobra replicas.

There were many many late 50's Chevys.

A nice old T-bird, although a little too much pink for my taste.

Yes, the Batmobile.

If the Batmobile can show up, I guess the Monkeymobile can too.

Giant people or really small car?

Niagara Falls - part 3

Just got home from a quick 2 day trip to Niagara Falls to shoot my sister in law's golf tournament. Her team from the US played against a team from Canada.

The American Falls from across the river.

We got there thursday night, checked into the hotel, then of course walked down to the falls to take some pictures.

The lights on the Canadian side that shine on the falls at night.

The walk from the river back to our hotel, the tower just to the right of the casino.

Our hotel, our room was in the left tower about in the middle, facing the falls.

The view from our room, the American Falls are just to the left and below the casino sign, I dreamed about gambling all night, I have no idea why.

The 2nd night we caught the fireworks, we walked down to the river but the mist from the falls soaked us so we walked back to the hotel and watched from our room.

My favorite.

Me waiting to go home.

Niagara Falls - part 2

Sunset as we were driving to the falls, we stopped for the night a couple hours before the falls and found all the hotels were full so we drove till midnight and stayed 100 yards from the falls.

Once we checked in we walked over to the island between the falls, this is the Canadian Falls at midnight.

The Canadian Falls up close.

The American Falls.

The rapids upstream from the American Falls, the tower in the background is on the Canadian side.

The Canadian side looking from the American side.

The Canadian Falls up really close.

The Maid of the Mist.

The American Falls up really close.

Niagara Falls - part 1

The Canadian (Horseshoe) Falls looking from the Canadian side or the river.

The American Falls from the Canadian side of the river.

The Canadian side where all the touristy stuff is.

Every trip everywhere involves a stop at the Hard Rock to pick up pins for Chris.

My Canadian crush.

Air Show - Selfridge Air National Guard Base - 2009

If my memory is correct, B-24.

F-18 during a high G turn.

F-18 and not sure what the other plane is.

USAF Thunderbird F-16's.
