Those sites are too cool I assume they are around Richmond somewhere. I'd like to get a few shots in that area

Brian could tell you where they are, I just followed him. I do know that to get there, we had to go through a neighborhood that I would not have stopped in if the vert was on fire, and US marshals were behind me. I was starting to wonder if he was looking for picture spots or "recreational pharmaceuticals"

Edit: BTW, as Brian stated in the original post, I do have pics to post, but Brian only had 117 and two other people to help him pic the best ones, I have 305 and have to do it by my self...it may be a day or two.

Brian,

Is there a picnic area near where you took these pictures? Maybe we could arrange a barbecue/cook out gathering some weekend at a near by park and take the cars to that location for a big photo shoot.

Come on Brian, out with it! Where you take those pics? I've lived in this city my entire life and I thought I knew where all of the cool spots were, so where have you been hiding these?

Seriously, those are way cool pics!

No picnic area but Joe and I were talking about the same thing. Getting everyone together to do a photo shoot. There are a few more spots I am going to recon on my way to get a haircut today but I will post up soon when might be a good date. With the
the stuff we already have planned and work it is going to be hard to find a date. Best bet would be to get a few people together next Sat after the motor trend car show. just a thought. Oh and al of these were taken in petersberg VA 15-20min south of richmond

Brian, while we were having our marathon Uno game last night, I was looking at the pics on your wall, and decided to do a little playing. What do you think?
