Don't Just Go for a Ride. Get Out and Shoot Some Stuff !

Today a few friends and I piled in a car and got out of town.  It was looking like the sun might shine, finally, after what seems like weeks of clouds and rain.

Head north.  That was the only plan we had because there was a rumor going around, that's where the sun was going to shine, all day long.  Well, we weren't just going for a joy ride.  We wanted to shoot our cameras.  Shootin' out of a car window isn't much fun.  So, we stopped a lot and got off the beaten path.

Up in the northern areas of Okinawa there must be thousands of places the average citizen doesn't even know about.  Every time I go up there,  I find something I've never seen before.  And I shoot it.

Once in awhile the wind blows clouds in over our island.

That's when we hop back in the car and take the bridge to somebody else's island.

Because we didn't take the car along just to ride.  We wanted to go shoot some stuff.

And we did.

NOTE:  For the Christmas Holidays SANTA GIRL WILL BE FEATURED ON MY HOMEPAGE

Investigative Report: Santa Girl (Photo)

This was going to be a long investigative report on the Santa Girl Photo, so I could prove to you that she really exists.

But, gremlins or somebody decided to slow the WWW  way down today, at least in Japan, where I launched this investigation.

So, I'm going to make this quick and let you do some investigating, on your own, when things get boring between Christmas Day and the New Year.

Normally an investigation of this sort consists of Facts, Findings, Opinions, Conclusions, Recommendations and a whole bunch of other Legal Terms that give investigative people headaches and nightmares.

And that's why I don't usually do the stuff anymore.
But, this Santa Girl got me wondering if there was really such a thing.

Like, is she a real person or just a character? 

To determine the truth would require a thorough, legal-like, full-blown investigation. So, by golly, that's what I set off to do. I'm going to give you what I've found, so far, and let you make up your own Facts, Findings, Opinions and Conclusions on this investigation after you look at what I found HERE.

From what I've been able to gather, up until this point in time; the Santa Girl is a real-live person, living somewhere in Romania. I'm leaning towards making a Recommendation, with only part of a thorough Investigative Report completed.

Here's what I recommend:

Get rid of the old, fat, hairy Santa. Everybody already knows he can't actually slide down a chimney. He scares little kids and they cry and wet his pants.

Let's have a real-live Santa Girl like the one in the photo..... END OF REPORT.
