Chevy Chased

A Journey Down Memory Lane

Photograph copyright: DAVID McMAHON


On this occasion, someone else drove the vintage Chevy to the levee. All I did was photograph it. And no, I didn't see Don McLean. Nor did I see any good old boys drinking whiskey and rye. But this'll be the day that I try.

  1. David,

    if you drink enough whiskey and rye, you'll either see "anything you want to", or you'll end up blind and see nothin'!

    Come to think of it, I don't usually associate a Chevy with such a fancy hood emblem.....

  2. My favourite song!!! Was it because I had finished school and was heading for the big bad world at the time.

    Great catching up with you - you are so prolific and so interesting as usual.

  3. Took me a moment to get the clever pun, and then I smiled and laughed.

    After reading your American Pie post that great old tune is playing in my mind.

  6. Gee thanks. I wonder how long that song's gonna be replaying in my head.

    ...Which wouldn't be bad, except for the unfortunate hollow acoustics from a botched lobotomy. Echo, echo, echo...

  7. Did you happen to know that Don McLean wrote "American Pie," while in a local 'watering hole' in my city? "The Tin n' Lint" by name.

    Hmmmm, there's an idea for a photo op for me, hu? ,-)

    Thanks for the comment, I always try to return the favor. Nice images and interesting text to go along with them. I'll be checking back--

    peace,

    Don

    ...Yeah: 'peace' I know that sounds sarcastic coming from an American. I didn't vote for the bastard.....
