I'll be on holidays at the end of next week so won't be able to take part in the comp this time :-(

Now that's what I call a pretty lame excuse! The holiday is sooooooo far away, you can't shoot anything first? Not voting is certainly criminal, but if it were a capitol offense how dead would Shirley be? ;-) And if you win, we'll either a day or two for you, or just hand it off to the number two dog. It's happened before and everyone survived. Now get out there and shoot a wall. :-)

One will have to be kicked over to the X at some point.

Haven't been first in the comp in ages, but it cost me... the van died on the way home (fuel pump?) yet another expense I don't need (no E-M1 this year!)

Hey, at least it got me within a block of my house (coasting) Could have died on the way back from Riverhead the day before!
 
What can you do with a blank wall and a bit of time on your hands? Should be recognizable to the North American contingent of a certain age in this group. Found in Victoria British Columbia.

I'm heading out early tomorrow for about 10 days. Hope I will be able to get a chance to vote while on the road.

Ok I exaggerate, trying to catch votes :)
 
Hey Art, I think we all agree that you could have held off a bit on the comp if it would've spare the van. But I suspect the van was headed for grief no matter what. That's rotten. Do you have other wheels or will you be skateboarding for a while? Take care.
 
Borrowing mom's Jeep. It's older than my van, the handling is a lot different, but only 70K mile and the AC works.

You have to admit though, dying a block from the house is worlds better than 50 miles from nowhere... Or one of those parts of town where if you leave a car for five minutes, you're lucky if the frame is still there when you get back.
 
No one has had a chance to shoot over the weekend? Guess I need to join the party in X.
 
Added one to comp-gallery.

Hahahaha, no kidding! We once got two flat tires (one spare) in the middle of nowhere, Virginia, and got towed miles to a gas station. Eventually, they found an old tire that would fit, put it on the rim, and ran away with it over a hill. Turns out there was a creek down there and they were just checking for leaks. :-)
 
Hi Trond! :-)
 
Sunday morning we went downtown... really hot day, only tourists were walking up and down the streets, local people were on the beaches for sure, except us ;-)
