Rustang

September 7, 2008

I promised I would post pictures of the rustang, and after a week or so of trying to come up with something else to post, I give in. The first two pictures are really of the new top, try not to look at the poor rusting, dented body too much. The third is of my weekend project. I installed CAI or Cold Air Intake. Yeah, it gave more horsepower, and a better sound, but the real reason I did it was for the gas mileage. It is *supposed* to give me an extra 3 miles to the gallon, which is a nice bump up, especially with gas prices the way they are… I was going to spray paint it yesterday, but it was raining, so I decided not too. And yes, I am planning on doing more to the car to make it look better…

Sorry if this was boring to you… But hey, it’s a post

P.S. Maybe I’ll upload a sound clip after I install the flowmaster…

So we went walking…

April 11, 2008

It was such a nice friday night, and the promised rain hadn’t arrived yet, so Rachel and I decided to go walking. Yes, walking as in putting one foot in front of the other, the type of thing that Americans don’t do very much of… I decided to bring my camera along to capture some of the more odd moments of our walk… But before we left I wanted to get a measuring wheel, the type that rolls along the ground measuring distances, because I wanted to figure out how many times you have to walk the paths where I work, to make a mile… So I stopped at my brothers shed, and spent ten minutes looking for said elusive wheel. Apparently Rachel was bored and took it upon herself to take pictures of odd objects…

Yeah, encase you are wondering, that is my rearview mirror in above picture… I don’t know, trust me, I don’t know… Anyway, even though my brother promised that said wheel was in his shed, alas it was not, so Rachel, myself, my car, and my camera were the only parties involved on said walking trip… :( Oh well, some other time. We then traveled the 1.7 miles to my place of work and began walking. We first stopped to take pictures of some yellow flowers, none of them turned out. I decided to take a picture of Rachel

Yeah, so it isn’t the best picture, but hey, I was just playing with my camera so whatever… All went fine on the trip, except for some odd fellow that was powerwalking laps around us, until Rachel got sick. Yeah, it was kinda odd, all of the sudden she said she didn’t feel good, so what did I do, yup I took a picture, and even got her to laugh, go figure…

But then, even after laughing and all, she made me go get my car and come pick her up so that she didn’t have to walk the rest of the way… Yup, she’s that mean

Even though she was sick, she still found energy to take a picture of me coming to pick her up, not sure why… but yup, that is the poor old “Rustang”

And there’s me, like a good little brother… Sorry if the pictures look really weird, the ISO sensitivity was all messed up, anyway, if you thought this post was really dumb, that’s ok, it’s a post right :) Ok, so maybe I could have done better, but I was getting desperate for something to post, so if you’ve already read this far, you just wasted a good minute or two which you will never get back…

Winter is Here!

January 5, 2008

Finally, the season I have been waiting for with bated breath (ok…maybe not) is here! This is the first winter I have had my Nikon D40 DSLR camera… and I am quite excited about it. For those of you who know a little bit about Photography, winter is the perfect lighting season. Most other times of the year sunrise and sunset are the best times to take pictures, but then you have to get up early, and the lighting changes very quickly. I mean, sure, you can use filters and junk, but nothing is quite the same a pure natural lighting. So, now that winter is here, there will be more outside pictures than usual on my blog (hopefully). So here are a few I took today…blog1.jpg
