I learned something today

[polara71]

I was busy with work around the house and other running around all day and the weather was warm and clear just perfect for a cruise. Finally put the tools away just as it was getting dark. Pulled Nessie out of the garage and it was a perfect top down cruise through town and back averaging 30 mph all the way. One of the most pleasant cruises I can recall. The Monaco is fun to drive and Polara is simply a pleasure. Two very different but complementary experiences.

The weather here has been perfect. I dont recall more perfect weather strung together ever. Something about getting those Polara convertibles out.

30MPGs Fred? :eusa_whistle:

Capable of over 20 mpg but doubt I've ever hit 30. Don't really care when the cruising is this good...like being in a trance.

I agree...........I get much less than that in all of mine.

nice pics Dave.

But the TIME you took them is unbeliveable.
I am in bed at this time of the day. Sometimes not too long yet.
I have a hard time waking up at 8am.

Nice, Dave! As always you take fantastic pictures. I agree If you can get out early enough parts of south jersey are absolutely deserted, and look like the deep south. Car is nice too, lol. Yeah, I think I know that road..haha.

Nice pics Dave, thanks.
my guess on the bird would be turkey vulture.

 

[commando1]

Can anyone tell me what kind of bird this is? He looks mean...

It's an old Buzzard. Surprised he's not a member here...

Those usually have the red thing on their face and are fatter. Those fly our skies frequently. This bird I've never seen before...... could be a buzzard

It's a buzzard. We have a ton of them here in Florida.
The skies will be clear and not a sign of animal anywhere.
A squirrel gets run over and 2 minutes later it looks like a Teamsters Union meeting at the free coffee and donuts table.

That I can relate to.



Skies here have the turkey buzzards and Red tails. Occasionally an Eagle but that's scarce.

I try to put it in terms you can understand.
