  • Roger, thanks for the selection. That picture is one of my favorites as well and was chosen by Aaron to be in one of his Thunderbird Specialties annual calendars several years ago. The Pikes Peak event presented so many opportunities for great pictures of our cars.

    For our next challenge, let's see your car by a mural on a building. Here's our car by one on a building near the university in our little town.

    Oops, guess I'm done posting pictures, unless Spence is able to get me more space. Tried to post the example and got this message:

    • Santa Rosa, New Mexico coming home from NOLA event. Root Beer float tasted great on that day's travel.

      • Managed to reduce the size of my example, so with any luck it will come through. Here's the mural in our town I was referring to:

        This will definitely be the last picture I can post if Spence doesn't get me more space.

        Trying another mural picture as a test for Spence.

        Hmmm. Seems to have worked. Thanks for getting me more space, Spence.

              That mural deserves bonus points since it has a Tbird in it.

              • This mural is posted in my home town of Dallas, Ga.. The city was transformed into the fictional IMG_0854.JPG city of Blue Valley, Nebraska for the DC comics filming of the TV show "Stargirl". They filmed here most of the end of last year and will continue once the new season starts filming.

                • Keep them coming folks!

                  I'm really a sucker for a good mural. Here's one that's located in Bartlesville, OK, which we visited for Thunder On The Prairie awhile back.

                    One of the five new murals commissioned by the city in our downtown area. The others I wasn't able to get the car in front of for a decent picture. These have greatly improved the looks of some of the older building that were headed to a state of disrepair.

                      Keith,

                      Your pic is a perfect example how a little exposure adjustment and cropping can really enhance an image. My phone makes it so easy.

                            Dot, your picture is not speaking at all. I can't see it.
