Drive in the rain....... ahahahahahh! God that is funny.
So. One of my hobbies is photography and shooting birds. To shoot 'em, you got to get to 'em. Where are they? In the salt marshes and wetlands of New Jersey. Yes, I take my C2S there, in the sand, gravel, and yes, occasional muck. Best to get into muck in the winter with my snow tires (never so much as spun a wheel... very much).
True story: A few weeks ago, I had my indy replace my trans oil and rear control arms. To do this, he put the car on the lift and proceeds to remove the under tray. I stood and watched. As he dropped the tray, the poor guy was pelted by an avalanche of white gravel, sand, and silt!!! I felt so sorry for the guy and I apologized up and down.
When he used is air gun to remove the wheel bolts, huge puffs of dust hit him in the face.
By the way, I change my air filters probably twice to three times a year...... when I run my finger over the paper fins, bigs poofs of white shoot out. I would like to see an improvement in our cars and that is they suck in dust way too much... not good.

The map! No Roads!!!!!! (Bombay Hook)
I snapped this gal yesterday afternoon (Bombay Hook):
Imagine the look you would get from the tech getting dust in his face if he was working on your … Ferrari. Then your name goes on a list and quietly, oh so unobtrusively, no Ferrari's available for you, Mr. DeBonis.

Forget the porsche, how the heck did you get the owl to look directly at your camera!!??
Great horned owls will just do that. The trick is not in the stare, the real challenge is finding them. Good Birder Brains can hear their hoots, know what species it is, and the go find them. I don't have that skill.
I head down to Bombay Hook in DE five to ten times a year and when you go to these reserves, they will be loaded with Birder Brains (and birds!)..... you just say "hello" (they do speak English and can hold a conversation if you lead). Then using their parlance, just ask them "What are you seeing?". By using their secret language, they will recognize you as a friendly and start gushing with information. They will tell you what is where, so I knew there were a pair of nesting Great Horned Owls in the area.

Hey Bruce...the "Birder Brains" comment made me laugh. I am a 'failed' Ornithologist. There a whole bunch of mnemonic phrases to remember owl species calls (e.g. "Who cooks for you?" = Barred Owl)
Next time I am in Philly I need to check out your haunts for some birding (and butterflying).
Awesome. You should see my poor tech when he pulls under trans off after a little desert off track excursion :-(
Btw it's good form to pull these off if you're having this sort of debris collection. The rocks can wear on the underbody and have also been know to wear through coolant lines etc.
