That don't look like Pennsylvania. You on the moon? Looks more like NM or AZ.

I guess that's the part of Bucks County I have missed so far, must have been Bucks County in the 1200's

My wife is always on me about where I choose to park and how long it takes - too bad for her.

Nope, can't be Bucks County. No toilet bowl shaped courthouse overlooking the vista.

I've learned to drop my wife off at the door of where ever we are going, and then go to the back and take as long as I need to, to find my parking spot.

I drop her at the door and park where I want, then pick her up when we're done. Even though she doesn't walk well or far, she refuses to get a handicap parking sticker.

The thing is finding a spot like that with only a beautiful backdrop of mother nature is the perfect place for a pic of the car. Nicely done.

"Not really convenient to anything, though..." That's okay; most Vette drivers I've seen could benefit from longer walks.
