| Nice Pic! It could go replace the logo on the left side of the screen! My last 2 trips that I posted about were scrap aluminum from a chicken n waffle stand that covered a catering wagon. I tried to do the pictures but had trouble with the camera. Who likes chicken n waffles anyway? Not many in AZ evidently! |
