Be careful out there. Pics while driving no different than texting while driving. Cool photo though.

Well Chip,

At least with one hand on the wheel and the other on the camera we know you couldn't have been on the phone.

I know I should not be doing that while driving but as you can tell from the photo, I was more or less alone on that stretch.

This is not something I would ever do if the traffic was bad, too many accidents happen that way.
I also drive a Smart car so I couldn't go fast even if I wanted to LOL.

The pic is cool though and I wish I could duplicate it. I tried, but no success.

Driving and taking pics? Don't push your luck too far.

We'd miss you around here...
