Palindrome I love word and number games. While I was driving along the Rim of the World highway in the San Bernardino mountains, I noticed that the mileage on the odometer was a palindrome. (A palindrome is a word or number that reads the same forward and backward.)
The word palindrome first appeared in the English language sometime around 1620–30. It comes from the Greek word palíndromos, meaning recurring. It is derived from pálin meaning again, or back, plus -dromos, meaning running. ————————————————————————— Update: This image was used in an article on the Jaunted website: One Last Chance To Go Platinum, December 29, 2008. ————————————————————————— 20080806_2771a_800x600 Comments

I had to stop. On those winding roads, it's
too hard to steer with my knees so I can keep
both my hands free to operate the camera. :-)
I checked out your group and it looked like
fun. I love puzzles. I sent this photo to the
group.
Thank you. A lot of people have mentioned
that they've been glad I stopped to take the
photo. I have 232,232 coming up in the next
week or so. I'll have to try that one at 100
MPH. :-D
Finding location...

Nicely captured. Glad to see the needle is pointing to 0 rather than 50.
