pics from yesterday

A '56 Ford on the right, which the owner had meticulously restored. An older Buick on the left, which is in all-original condition. Or at least all very old. Rusty, in fact. But it had a lot of charm.




The Sussex Cardinals (in grey, so I guess that makes them female) vs. the Pewaukee Muskies.


This is "Stinky's Bucket" (with a picture of Pepé Le Pew on the back). My compatriots Brian, Bob and Bonnie are on the far sidewalk.


This is Pewaukee Lake. The town is on the side of the lake to my left. I'm standing on railroad tracks which run along one side of the lake. The tracks being on the lake, I imagine they get more people than usual walking along them to get around the lake. Not to mention that with no land on one side, they're probably more dangerous than usual. Hence, the strongly worded no trespassing sign. But... no semis on the tracks?


I like the fluorescent light "halo" over the head of St. Whatsername.


"Remember the monument we put up for the men who served in the Great War?"
"Sure I do."
"We're going to need another one for this war."
"We can't afford one right now. How about if we just add on to the old one?"




A Canadian Pacific engine pulling a long line of tank cars. It is a General Electric Evolution Series, with a 4400 horsepower diesel engine powering six AC traction drive motors. *g*


I had to check the photo when I got home, to see if he really gave me the gesture that I thought he did.


A photogenic cyclist. I think a dozen different people shot this girl, mostly at a different location than this.

I almost missed the beer can hat in the back window of the green car. I can't make out the kind of beer it advertises though it looks pretty old so maybe the hat is from the 70's? That is when people made those things. As well as beer pull tab "curtains".

I'm glad somebody noticed that. I thought it was cute. Schmidt Beer. Yeah, probably from the seventies. I don't remember pull tab curtains, but when I was eight, none of my friends were partiers.
