So for those of you who don’t know my family and I went on a road trip to Idaho and on our way back we had to stop at Baker’s California to sell my kidneys for gas and so while we were filling up I decided to take out my Mavic 3 and fly it while outside the temperature was 102 and when flying I found this chaotic car pile which in my opinion made for an interesting shot and so I hope you guys enjoy and thanks for stopping by.

Hello there Fred Fred Fred. Good day and thank you for sharing this beautiful aerial photos that you have shot using your DJI Mavic 3. Great work and keep flying. .

Colourful image. Well spotted

Interesting they are all old classics and not just scrap.

Remarkable shot.  

Don't you just love how the price of gas has shot up over the past 2 months?

Gas?  Would that be "petrol" in English?

Yes, you are absolutely 100% correct.  Also, none by other names:

Gas = petrol = gasolina = essence = benzin = petrolyo

I did run across a website that translates American lingo into British terms.

Sorry, got it backwards.  It explains British words into understandable American English.

Sorry, I have to pull you up, there.
No such thing as American-English.
There's only Amurrican OR English  

Sorry!

Yeah I was surprised by how some of these look like there good shape but are just left their in the sun.

Yeah, In Baker’s California alone the price of gas was almost seven dollars but it was nice though as we drove up to Idaho as the price of gas went down a dramatically but because of it whenever my sister says “what’s up” I always reply “gas prices.”

Good catch.  I probably should have typed United States English as we use a different variety of English language native to the United States solely..  

The short form for United States of America, established virtually from its inception and accepted around the world, is America. That was why I originally said American English.  However, now that you have schooled me up I will not make that mistake again.

Careful now, you will eventually make her mad if you keep telling her that.  

I'm definitely ready for the gas prices to drop back down.  Getting ready to take my large live aborad boat on a cruise excurstion in the Caribbean before Hurricane season starts and the price of diesel just skyrocketed also.  My tanks hold 1,000 gallons so not hard to see what they cost to fill up.

Yeah a 1000 gallon tank would be a lot, I don’t know what my dad paid for gas on our trip as we took our motor home  and towed a trailer which had our car on it so I can only imagine what that would be but really makes you stop and think so I really need a second kidney or another eye?

A good alternative would be an eBike or and Electric Vehicle (EV).

Sorry to be so pedantic - it' s a British trait

No worries.  I took it as a learning moment.  Very few things rile me up (just don't try to take away my right to bear arms).

I guess that's a sore point at the moment after the recent event
'Nuff said.

Thank you Frank!

Well spotted, that reminds me of the parking lot of our new local supermarket right after it was opened two days ago It was about as easy to find a parking space there as it is here
