Can't get enough of that setting sun

Goin' down the road

Upper Kingsburg Road. Two lobster boats (tiny white dots) can be seen in Rose Bay in the foreground. Believe it or not, the land mass in the distance is the Aspotogan Peninsula!

Still more dump road burnage

Another shot of the patch of brake burns, spotted on the dump road a couple weeks ago.
