Behind the Lens: Stuck in a photo rut

I think your photos are recognizable because they are consistently excellent, not because they are predictably redundant. It's fun to mix things up but you don't need to mess with perfection! :)

Man flown to hospital with life-threatening injuries after semitrailer accident on U.S. 59

Right now that intersection is near the ongoing construction. The cones and flashing lights and random vehicles parked on the side of the road make it visually distracting. Earlier today I saw an dangerous situation at that same intersection. A east-bound cement truck gunned it and pulled out in front of a car going south on 59 HWY. The car had slowed and was turning E (left) onto 458. The cement truck was at the stop sign and did not have the right away. If the car hadn't yielded, there would have been an accident.

Do you think moving in together before marriage will later prevent divorce?

I think cars are meant to be test driven, not people. People are priceless and deserve more than having their "tires kicked" by numerous people and returned to the lot. I like how John Thomas says it:

"...you're not buying a car; you're searching for the person you'll spend the rest of your life with, raise a family with, and grow old with. You're much better off to look for connection in other areas — spiritual, personal and emotional compatibilities. The last thing you need to worry about is sexual compatibility or performance... [that] is something that grows, matures, enhances over time, and surely can't be judged on a "test-drive."

You can learn a person's character without having to live with them. Try canoeing together or hanging wallpaper. You'll learn a lot right there! :)
