way back – Haven’t Posted in a While

Seems like I’ve not posted in a while and that’s pretty much true. so I figured I’d share a thought or two. Here’s a small version of an oil pastel I worked on last weekend.

Coming back from hiking about Grindstone, I started thinking about the car wave. I’ve not seen them lately, if at all. The car wave is generally given by the driver of one vehicle to the driver of an oncoming vehicle. I don’t know if’s a greeting that’s only practiced in rural areas or if in these days of multilane highways and darkened windows people have become isolated within their own automobile islands. There’s no more flip of the fingers from the steering wheel to acknowlege a fellow driver, unless it’s in the action of rudely giving them the bird. I remember cheerfully waving back from the passenger’s set at on coming cars when I was much younger. So I’ve decided to reintroduce it to my driving lexicon.
