Twitter Changes

      Over the last few weeks, Twitter has been making some changes to the way they track our activities. They are doing a better job of tracking our likes and dislikes, of the kinds of posts we see popping up on our page. When all this first started, I wasn’t sure if I liked what was going on, but over the last few weeks, I can now see that some improvements are being made. With all the technology available today, it’s easy to imagine that with the right people working on it, things can get better. 

      The kind of photo I like seeing pop up on my page.

Taillight Tuesday Tradition

     There are some images from the past that are permanently fixed in our mind. Some of them from as long as 50 years ago. Some of the scenes from the movie American Graffiti are a permanent fixture in my memories from long ago.

     The style of street racing portrayed by that movie, was a part of my life for many years.  I even wrote a book about it. Anyone interested can find it by following this link;  Grab Some Gears

Ford Friday

      Friday is finally here, especially welcome if you’ve had a stressful week like I’ve had. Time to post a few photos of neat cars on Twitter.  It’s “ Ford Friday “ after all, my favorite time of the week. The car I’ve chosen today is this sharp looking Ford GT, that just happens to be in one of my favorite colors.

     I hope everyone has a great weekend. Don’t worry, winter can’t last forever.  Anyone interested can find my book by following this link; Grab Some Gears

Best of Twitter

      It’s time to remember the reasons we started posting our favorite photos of great cars on Facebook and Twitter. There were many reasons that these types of social media became important to us, and many of our friends, for a lot of years now.  Things were going great, and in the last few weeks, things have begun to change, and not for the better.

     In the past few days, I have seen posts from many of my friends, indicating their frustration with the direction things are going on Twitter.  Many of them are ready to end their association with this social media site. I’m still undecided.  We’ll see how things go in the next few weeks. Have we already seen the  " Best of Twitter " ???

The type of car photo I love to post on Twitter.

Mustang Monday Again

      It’s “ Mustang Monday “ again, and finishes off the first week of the new year.  I want to start the new year right by posting one of my favorite photos, and one that I’m very proud of.  It’s one of my best in recent years, from a great photo shoot trip to Zion National Park, from a few years ago. 

      I got a lot of great shots on that trip, many of which I have used many times on Facebook, Twitter, and  here in my blog .  That is a very beautiful area, with great photo background almost any direction you look. The perfect place to showcase my 2015 Mustang GT. 

Taillights

      As we go through the rest of this week, I get the feeling that we’re watching the taillights of the year moving away down the road, ready to disappear over a hill in the distance.  For better or worse, this year is almost finished, and we can look forward to making the next year better than what we just went through.

     I’ve mentioned before in my blog posts, how much I like the taillights of many cars, some of which I have owned myself. The one that has got my attention lately, is the new Bugatti W16 Mistral, that I saw posted on Twitter.  Those are some spectacular taillights.  Just what we might expect from a car of the future.

Tiger Years

      This year has been the “Year of the Tiger “ .  I wrote a blog post about it back at the first of the year.  Major changes have always happened in my life in the Tiger years of the past, through out my whole life. I wasn’t sure of what this year might bring, but, major changes did come about this year.

      We lost three of the older generation of our family in the past few months. The process of going through all their stuff, and getting their homes ready to sell, was a real “wake up call “ for me.  I started going through my own stuff, and sorting out things I could pass on to my own kids and grandkids, while we’re still alive to do it.  It has become a major project for the next few years.  We’ve already got a good start on it in the last couple months.  I can already see this is the major change in my life for this “ Year of the Tiger”
