I can't even apologise for picture quality.. This is not my thing. I'm almost impressed with the last one. 
Nice end to the evening.

Side note: I have been to Kraków. A really, really lovely city. Lovely things to see there, and lovely people. I would like to return some day.

Ya had me at the fried pies!!! Mmmm...
We have these winter birds around here that we take care of in Wisconsin,
We feed them beer nuts, cheddar cheese and dark stout beer, so they get kind of large.
They create a real problem when they come over to the bird feeders.
They bend over the Shepard's hooks and the bird feeder falls off.
OR it's possible it could be one of these that came thru on Christmas afternoon.

Beside the two things that always happens -- death & taxes, in Wisconsin we have a third. One week after ice freezes, fishermen will be out there knowing the
the ICE is nice and thick, BUT it tends to float away with a little wind. And usually, they come to only rescue you, your equipment is left behind.

They should charge 'em for it. Just my opinion.
Made our way home from So. Cal. with a planned overnight stop at Lake Havasu City. There's a stretch of about 150 miles across the high desert between Barstow CA and Needles CA with very few stops or services available. Sidewall/Tread separated during the last downhill section at about 80mph. Warning lights came on and I got to watch it count down to about 10lbs as I pulled off on the first Needles offramp that just happened to have a tire shop at the end of the ramp. The truck stayed straight the whole time, never really even pulled to the right, thank goodness for the TPI systems. 1-1/2 hours, $1,335.00 and 4 new goodyears later we were back on the road. Other than oil changes, filters, wiper blades etc it's the first money I've put into this truck since I bought it 4 years ago.

That tire shop knows the perfect place to setup shop!
You ever driven through Needles? LOL

Once.
I wish I understood cell-phone phototography. Same sunrise, same settings. In real life, the first one was more interesting:

Cell phone cameras are amazingly convenient, and work equally amazingly well, but they lack the optics of a "real" camera. When I need really good pictures, I pull out our Canon EOS Digital Rebel. AFAIK, no cell phone can match the optics of even a low-end dedicated camera.
We purchased the original Canon EOS Rebel in January 1992, and it lasted 20 years before it died. We replaced it with the first digital Rebel, and although it's dated by today's standards, it takes fantastic pictures.
Thats actually not a bad price. Here is a comparable Michelin tire (from Discount Tire) that fits what I suspect he has. 4 tires plus TT&L about the same really.
That actually makes me feel a bit better, thanks Mike, Happy New Year to you!
The days of spending $200 on a set of tires is as lost as my youth!
Same to you guys!
