Love photography and transportation related items-Boats, photos, trains. planes, busses etc.

Some people think it is strange that I like buses and trains so much. Sure, I can go around Seattle and ride a bunch of buses and take a bunch of photos, it's a hobby of mine. Much like some people can tell you everything there is to know about cars (make, model, year, engine etc), I can do that on a much larger scale with buses and some trains. Even though there may be a couple hundred of the same type of vehicle in a fleet, each one has character. The details are what's important. Over the years, each vehicle has had small (and sometimes large) projects and maintenance work done that makes it stand out in some little way. It's all in the details. I really enjoy running around to figure out why something is the way it is. There are many times that something is temporary and it makes a particular vehicle stand out. I try to document those things with photos. If anybody wants to call me strange or say "what was he thinking" or anything like that, so be it. I don't think it would be too difficult to find something "strange" that somebody does or is into. It is not strange if you like it. It becomes a hobby or passion. Not strange.

Thanks to God, I can also enjoy the beauty of the Puget Sound area. Very nice scenery everywhere you go.
