Always loved visiting The Mystery Spot. What kind of filter do you apply to your photos to get that old-fashioned look? I've been looking everywhere. I love the concept of you blog, BTW.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17932876544283747361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2886656691938704310.post-71984519329091818182010-03-12T21:15:34.558-05:002010-03-12T21:15:34.558-05:00Fabulous photos Heather!

I've gotten more afraid of heights over the past few years, so I wasn't real keen on driving it. I did good, though, I just kept staring ahead, and repeating in my head that it hadn't collapsed yet, it should hold up for me ;)Expressions by Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09523094274108986786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2886656691938704310.post-47548743565808326552010-03-12T09:24:05.611-05:002010-03-12T09:24:05.611-05:00I hate that bridge.

LOL I probably could have pushed my car faster than I drove it. <br />Great Pics though.Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15271161853226313816noreply@blogger.com
