Headed home on Hwy 282 a couple weeks ago from Sunday morning "Cars n' Coffee". That's Mt. Hood about 20 miles in the distance. - Bob

I took Old Betsy out for a drive today. They say our fall foliage is at its peak this weekend. Some pictures are pretty, more so if the sun had been out. Some pictures not too pretty. Enjoy

Probably not. Pennsylvania law says drivers should not be on the phone while driving.... I don't know if the law says anything about using a camera while driving.

Over here on the commie side of the country, the law says hands free, meaning you are not allowed to touch your phone while in the drivers seat, even if you're stopped, unless you're calling 911. Taking pictures would surely be frowned upon heavily.

Sounds like you live on the sensible side then Wayne. That law applies across this country too but anytime you drive the highway you'll always see some on their phones, I've seen them filming us when driving the pickup some times...lol
I often wonder how many get caught and fined..

Passenger headlight is good, need to adjust the driver side.
