Arrow On my way to Florida!

If you haven't noticed, we left for Florida and I've been taking pictures & uploading along the way. Sorry for the 640x480 resolution, but I want to get as much done as I can, and higher resolutions will increase my upload time.

Probably not. He's a few hours away. I'm staying in Daytona. Maybe if we drive out to Orlando I might be able to meet Erik there. We really don't have plans for the week. We just got back from visiting Grandpa. He slept the whole time, He didn't even know we were there. Maybe tomorrow will be better.

That would be cool, but unfortunately I live a little over 200 miles away and it would mean a 4 hour to 4 hour and 30 minute drive for me.

I saw a COW today near the Daytona raceway. I'll try to take a picture later. It looked like it had been installed there a while, maybe it is a semi-permanent installation.

I think all the Nascar tracks have at least one COW installed since the sponsorship of Nascar by Nextel. Many of them get additional ones on actual race days.

The thing that gets me is that it is not on the race property, It is behind a convenience store, and the panels appear to be pointed away from the raceway. I will find out more once I have the opportunity to inspect this unit up close.

I just uploaded the COW shots I got in Florida. Unfortunately I didn't have an opportunity to stop and take some close up pics, I just took pics as we drove by on our last day. My Dad did inform me of a COW "farm" where there are several COWS set up in a semi-permanent installation. This location is about a mile out of my way when I drive home today, so I think I will take the diversion and go to the "farm".

I just got done with the last of my Florida uploads in the gallery. I'll get the rest of my pics from the other states done at another time.
