If you don’t look at my flickr photos you may not have noticed that I take a lot of photos of custom license plates. That’s because I’m adicted to the Hot Plates pool. So much so, that I’m the number one contributor right now. Well, a funny thing happened with this truck…
As far as I can tell no one had ever noticed me taking a photo of their plate. At least if they had, no one had ever cared enough to let me know they’d noticed. In this case I too the photo and then contiunued to drive down the highway even getting ahead of this truck. A few miles down the road I was on my off ramp and the truck pulled along side on my left and beeped his horn. I looked up and there was the driver with his digital camera taking a picture of me! I laughed and waved and he waved back. I wonder if that photo is somewhere in flickr…
