Not boring at all and here's why -

1. We get views of bits of 964.
2. We get to see someone else's 'ordinary' roads. This is interesting to someone from elsewhere - seeing the sights you see every day and the large or subtle ways your driving environment is different from our own.
3. We get a demo of that tiny camera - such clear pics from something so small.
4. Was it just me, or could anyone else actually 'hear' that 964 engine?

I agree with John, while it seems boring and "ho-hum" to you, it was actually interesting to see that other people do the same goofy things I did when I first got my digital camera!!

...I followed my dog around for awhile, he was quite disturbed with the whole idea as he had no clue what that object was I was following him around with! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" />

Pretty cool though, the daily commute of Robert Coats, a guy who's got FIVE kids, an Italian Wife...and writes books about lawn mowers!

Good Stuff, as John says not boring at all.

Jeff, loved the image of you following your dog around - I know just what you mean - in my case it was me following my three daughters around for days!

Robert,
I am perplexed? A beautiful car, full sun, left work.....why such a serious expression?! I thought the ear splitting grin was a no extra charge factory option?!!!!!!!
For what it's worth my 1991 C2 had the same problem with the seatbelt and airbag light. A trip to the local dealer turned up a fault in the entire clock unit. They replaced the clock and that fixed the problem.

The drive was routine, but I kinda thought the photos were boring. I promise I'll have some cooler ones next time...maybe a car wash?

I like posts like this, cool stuff. Hey Robert, you look like you have the figure to be a bouncer at a club.....if you're still single, I'd highly consider it because of the amount of chicks you can get and money you can make and you'll never sit at home on a friday night thinking "hmm, what should I do tonight?"
