What are the Odds?

What are the odds of driving over a 3/8" bolt and having it puncture your brand new tire dead center?

The tire only lost a little air and was repaired the next morning. I wouldn't have immediately noticed it. The low tire pressure indicator on the dashboard brought it to my attention.

For you photographers, I took this shot with the camera held inside the wheel well, set in macro mode and soft flash.

Shadow Lake Construction

Construction on the Shadow Lake Shopping Center is nearing completion.

Crews are using lifts like the one in the foreground to put the finishing touches on several buildings.

You can see four lifts in this photo. There are about in dozen in use around the construction site.

Quite a bit of work remains to be completed in the two weeks before the Grand Opening on Memorial Day Weekend.
