Since I had no new photos to post, I dug into the archives and found this photo from a rod run and car show back in November of 2008. I believe hood ornaments became popular again in the 1980s, but today’s versions are lame compared to ones like this from the 1930s. Instead of merely plopping a manufacturer’s badge on the hood, automaker’s of the past utilized designs that can only be described as sculpture. Compare this one to today’s offerings. Now that’s a hood ornament! (Click on photo to enlarge.)
Had Enough
Submitted by My Viewfinder Blog
It’s March 1. There’s more snow in the forecast for Tuesday and Wednesday. Spring is still 20 days away officially. In the Smoky Mountains where I live, it’s another 5-6 weeks away practically. I had planned to get out yesterday afternoon with my camera, but it was just too miserably cold and windy. Instead, I stayed inside and finished reading a biography of Jackie Gleason which depressed me even more. I’ve had enough of winter.
