What I Saw Today

Ya know how there are just some things you never think about. You know, who changes the light bulbs in the street signals when they burn out? How does the person who does this know they have burnt out? Who washes cop cars? If the answer is the cops, does the police chief wash his own cop car, too?

Well enough of that, you get my gist.

Today I was returning to the Taj Mahal after a brief visit with thejeepjunkie and stopping by the home of Classic Motorsports Magazine to check out their new digs here on US 1. They restored this cool old retro building and have a few classic cars in their lobby. They are a super personable bunch and I enjoy both of their mags and a visit to their website.

Anyway, when I pulled onto the street on which the Taj Mahal is located, I see this fire truck parked up the street.

Can you guess what I did? Yep, I moseyed on up to see what was going on.

Those firefighters, in the largest fire truck in Ormond Beach's fleet were

painting a fire hydrant.

Now at 49 years old, it had never occured to me to even think of who painted them and how often. Forgot to ask that question though.

And that is What I Saw Today.
