Which Sports Car Are You? QUIZ

Take the Which Sports Car Are You? quiz.



Here is the result from my answers to the quiz:

I'm a Mazda RX-8!


You're sporty, yet practical, and you have a style of your own. You like to have fun, and you like to bring friends along for the ride, but when it comes time for everyday chores, you're willing to do your part.

GPS Coverage

I found this illustration of visible GPS satellites at Wikimedia Commons®. I don't know why, but I like it. Maybe it reminds me of being on the Survey Boat. [CLICK HERE] for more information about navigating with GPS.

California Golden Poppies

One of the best things about living in California is being able to photograph California Golden Poppies, the state flower. I found these on the grounds of the San Juan Capistrano mission.

I also found this sculpture of Fr. Serra comforting an Indian. For you photo detail types both of these photos were captured using my ancient 6 year old Nikon D100 with the 16 year old Nikkor AF 35-70 f/2.8D zoom lens attached.This is one of the famous El Camino Real Bells.
