Day 230--Absence #6




Obviously I needed a tripod for this shot, so I went out for a walk, camera and tripod in hand, at about 10:30. At one point a police car passed me, and a minute or two later, the same car came back from the other direction, and slowed down. I figured the police man was trying to get a good look at what I was carrying. Then he gets my attention, and says, basically, what I was thinking, that he wanted to see what I was carrying, to "make sure it wasn't a machine gun."

I informed him it wasn't, and decided not to make a joke about a machine gun, just to be safe. So he motored on, and as I looked back, I saw stop at an intersection, and talk to another police car. So I had to wonder--had me seen me, got suspicious, and radioed for help? Or did the other car just happen to be there, and wanted to know what was going on?

Hmm...
