Beautiful paint job on your diesel.  Did you ever think of writing a post about your technique? I'd like to see how you weather your rolling stock.

Thanks. My wife has asthma and diminished lung capacity from birth, so I go outside for simple chores right now. Those photos show the best visibility we've had for over a week now, though the meet shot was with a telephoto lens. You can actually directly at the sun right now, it's so thick.

Reminds me of what the sky looks like in the "Blade Runner" sequel!

For today: " Drag race."
