Default Early Christmas Pics

Took advantage of a beautiful 60 degree evening tonight and did some cruising around town.
Here's a couple pics I stopped and took at the flood wall downtown Paducah, KY.
Please excuse the slight blur in the first couple shots...
I didn't have my tripod with me and tried to hand hold the camera
without using the flash in the extreme low lighting conditions.... ..
The last shot is the only one utilizing fill flash as you can obviously see...
Please feel free to post your holiday season pics if you've got them.
I'll be getting some better shots next time I'm out...

Nice shots Jim... Wish we had that 60 degree weather up here. Was just outside in the garage and it was 38 degrees.... Dang the new garage will be heated....

Jim, How far away is that wall from BG? Would love to take some shots of our two vettes next year at it while we are at CI 9....

Thanks for sharing some nice shots Jim. Ya know, I've been here since '88, and this time of year never gets easier with the missing "HOME". You can take the boy out of the bluegrass, but you can't take the bluegrass out of the boy.
Happy Holidays to you and yours pal!

It's about 150 miles or so Wayne. If you take all side roads, it's some of the prettiest driving around. Plus some pretty nice curves to hang her around if I remember right.
