Parking Lot Escapades of MadSnapper



Billy Bob, is that a woman with a camera standing in the middle of the driveway? OOGA OOOGA

photo from web

I, The MadSnapper parked my car at Dollar General and
and stepped out ... and behold! there was this amazing and odd shaped building.


YES! before I knew it the new  red camera popped out of my jeans pocket...SNAP!


And realized I was standing in the driveway right in front of a semi truck. Can you believe he did not even smile at me while I jumped stumbled out of his way? I was there FIRST...
The lack of smiles is OK , because at my next stop at Crowder Brothers Hardware, I bet I got laughs smiles because yet again I was standing in the driveway getting this. (yes, it would have been better from another angle, but there were cars waiting on me to move)


Florida, Winter Paradise on November 21, 2014

 and I am so Thankful, I was in short sleeves, capri pants , no coat, sandals
In Florida ....
Winter Paradise...
Just so you know...

You had me laughing about your standing in the middle of the driveway but then you made me cry when you started in on the winter paradise. I guess whatever the opposite of paradise is, that's where I am...lol

That truck drive needs to get in the holiday spirit! That is an unusual building! I love the flag photos, too.

You failed to mention that car parked in front of Dollar General--it's the same color as the sign!!

And, we woke up to 49 degrees this morning--so there!!

Best,

I am soooo jealous of your pretty weather! Our weekend was cold, windy, cloudy, downright dark at times and spitting rain off and on. Bluh... all of our green is gone now. Please keep posting those sunshiney, green, warm photos! and maybe you should wear an orange vest??? LOL

EG CameraGirl said...

UH OH! Please be careful because some truck drivers are mean spirited. I don't THINK one would run you over...just try to scare you. However, your photos are worth the scare. :))

I miss my short sleeves ;-). Glad you got out of the way of the Grinch.

Seriously, I chuckled so hard that I almost spit my coffee out!!! Your first line struck me as SO funny!! Especially the horn sounds. What a great way to open a Monday!! WHAT is the building? Have you ever seen it before? It is beautiful with the pastels and odd shape. You could make everyone GUESS! I am saying a hotel. I guess everyone is waiting for their beer on Thanksgiving, wanting to make you a Sadsnapper if you hold up the delivery!

TexWisGirl said...

LindyLouMac said...

Take Care!! It really felt like winter here today, had to wear gloves for the first time.

Ruth Hiebert said...

Be careful there. A trucker without a smile could cause trouble.LOL

Michaele said...

We need to get you a fluorescent vest! Cool flag shot.

Debby@Just Breathe said...

That is an odd building. He could have at least smiled at you. Love the flag shots, they are perfect!

Sure, rub it in that it's so warm down there! Nice shot of the semi--right before he ran over you! LOL I'm glad you're enjoying that red camera.

Linda P said...

Some colourful sights - love the painted building and to see the flag flying against the blue sky. Red camera - red rag to a bull. Take care, Sandra, but keep snapping, sharing and thanks for all the smiles you bring through your posts.

Ida said...

The nerve of that truck driver to not even smile at you. That building is unique. Loved the beautiful flag. Shame on you though for rubbing in your good weather (just kidding).
