** Dirt Roads ** Sometimes you just got to find an old dirt..
Added 2022-04-06 08:57:56 +0000 UTC** Dirt Roads ** Sometimes you just got to find an old dirt road and go where it takes you. Driving along a dirt road is the best therapy there is. On this morning we woke up to find the cars' battery is flat! My super intelligent, highly educated [sarcasm], husband left the cars' ignition on after closing the vehicle windows for the night! We did have jumper cables but needed another vehicle to jump start us. There were chalets there and just one had a vehicle parked in front. Our only chance, our last hope! Not wanting to disturb the owner of the vehicle, we started waiting... And waiting... And waiting... Eventually the door opened and we descended onto the poor guy like hungry vultures onto a delicious looking carcass!? The poor guy had this “deer caught in the headlight” look when we ran towards him. Either is was us looking like we were attacking him, or he thought he got caught with his mistress. To this day I believed it was the latter! We got the car started and the guy raced away (with his mistress) like the roadrunner in Looney Tunes!! This was taken on a forest road just outside the town of Louis Trichardt. A friend told us about the Hanglip Reserve and we were on our way there. During this shoot the mist started rolling in and it was eventually so thick we had to stop taking photos. But you know what, that is part of the fun!
