Now that is one oldie, but goodie my friend, It's all decorated and ready for the nest wedding party. Would be good for parades too.

Before I read the post I was thinking "Here in my neck of the woods, they only decorate like this for weddings!" Named for Henry Ford's son, the Edsel was supposed to be a very advanced vehicle, but it had lots of technical problems and the public hated it, particularly the gearshift in the middle of the steering wheel. Today they are collector's items. I have had occasion, in the past, to haul one of these on a tilt-and-roll flatbed a few times. The weight of this vehicle was very surprising until I crawled underneath to attach the winch hook, discovering that there is so much steel cross-bracing on the underside, for structural support, that that must be where the weight comes from. Personally, I thought they were cool looking, very industrial artistic in appearance. Your angle in this shot does it justice.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.

This is a rare and original capture. Composition excels, the light, color, angle, etc. make for something to be very proud of. Favorite.

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
