    1960 Dodge Matador

    I am pretty sure there was LSD in the water coolers at Chrysler-Plymouth-Dodge-DeSoto for a few years there around the end of the '50s & beginning of the '60s. B)

    I have driven past there and not even realized it. :p

    I had a silver '85. Not a Biarritz, though.

    Shot these last night one hour apart. First one was at 6:50pm. There was still some blue sky at 7, by 7:50pm it was dark. I was hoping to get more detail from the darkness, but they look pretty much the same. Again, shot with my phone.

    If you still live in the area, we should hang out sometime.

    I think the last time I was in L.A. longer than a day or two was 1994. I live in Vermont now.

    lots of turkeys in the yard today. Counted 46 yesterday. :|

    Now, here you'll see four turkeys up in the spindly little sumacs, snacking on the sumacs' seed/flower pods. This time of year, we get quite a variety of birds snacking on these -- mostly A-list birds (waxwings, bluebirds, pileated woodpeckers, robins), but some low-lifes, too. ;)
