So last weekend, Michael grabbed the camera and decided to take David for a drive to try to get the desired photo. David insisted on taking my iPhone so that he could videotape the whole drive in a 14 minute long video documentary that I like to call The Making of the Money Shot: Snapping Perfect Infrastructure Photos without Alerting Homeland Security.
I have posted my favorite portion of that video below. It makes me laugh every time. I do not intend to make you watch the entire 14 minutes, only 40 seconds. In just over 200 posts, this is my first video link, so I must think it’s good. Make sure your volume is turned up.
This clip is taken from that segment where Michael has just pulled off of the interstate to find the perfect vantage point to take the snapshot. Please take note of the yellow sign that is almost out of the frame as the video begins. David certainly did.
I like that way David’s speech comes slowly, haltingly at first as if he is really trying to trust Michael, to believe that he knows what he is doing, but then his better judgment intervenes. “I…thinking…TURN AROUND!”
At least it is somewhat reassuring to know that David is not solely critical of my driving.

Michael should be trusted in many things, but apparently not in sign reading/location finding.
