Sunday Stills~Music
The challenge this week at Sunday Stills is MUSIC. The description as posted for the challenge-”This will be a fun challenge I think because music can be found in a lot of different people, places and things. Take some shots that reflect the music in your life.” Ok I have to tell you, I am a gal that loves cars and trucks. Love their colors, shapes and sounds. And the soft idling momomomomomo that ramps up to a throaty little growl from this exhaust is music to my ears. I get this vehicle lovin’ thing honest from my Mom and Dad. My Mom loved her little dark green 1966 Mustang and I could hardly wait to grab it after school where she worked and cruise my little town with my gal pals. My Dad loved every car he owned and couldn’t wait to buy the next one. So this one is for you Mom and Dad! I know you are up there watching and smiling.
Please check out the other Music entries for the Sunday Stills Photo Challenge!
Another car lover! I have been one since I was a little girl…had my dream car several years ago – a 25th anniversary edition red Camaro! I LOVED that car! It really was music to my ears! I also owned a teal colored 1970 mustang – loved that one too! Now I have a more traditional car – a Jeep Grand Cherokee…oh well, my cruisin’ days are over.

You can cruise real nice and in style in a Grand Cherokee! Linda you seem to be doing some grand cruising based on the pictures you been snapping! The old Mustangs, you gotta love ‘em!

I love the old American cars, my highlight of rumbling through the exhaust, was when my Mini got a hole in it. It sounded like a lean mean street machine.. Have a happy Sunday

I love the old cars but boy I love the new ones they are cranking out.

The old saying … “music to my ears”. Music comes in every form. Happy Sunday!
September 23, 2012 at 9:19 am
Yes music is everywhere and not limited to notes..
Happy Sunday back at you! Thank you for the visit. I enjoyed my visit to your blog.

excellent! red 66 Mustang– cruised as a passenger along THE Saturday night street in Tucson, AZ!
September 23, 2012 at 9:45 am
Red is very good! I bet that was a hot little pony. Tucson huh? Friday was cruise night in my little hometown in MissouREE. Geesh we couldn’t stay out of trouble….
September 23, 2012 at 9:54 am
We never realized the trouble we COULD get into! Just 3 or sometimes 4 high school girls… >:-D

September 23, 2012 at 10:36 am
Thanks…

That’s brilliant! I also love cars and trucks. Keep telling my long suffering Mum that I want to be a Truck Driver. For some reason she appears unimpressed with this idea
September 23, 2012 at 11:41 am
Well, ya do see a lot of women driving the big rigs!
September 23, 2012 at 9:55 pm
Love your take on this challenge!
September 23, 2012 at 11:51 am
Thank you so much and thanks for the visit to Under the Oaks!
September 23, 2012 at 9:56 pm
I’m glad to see some new cars with style and class–a bit of a rumble doesn’t hurt, either. I loved working at a dealership and seeing all the new cars as they arrived.
September 23, 2012 at 1:58 pm
Oh yeah Patti that would be fun! I remember when the new models all came out at the same time right around my birthday. Dad and I would go round to all the dealers and look at the new cars.
September 23, 2012 at 9:59 pm
I’ve been to the Funny Car and Dragster races at the Spokane Raceway- love it when the rumble is so loud it vibrates your very bones.
September 23, 2012 at 2:46 pm
Oh yeah!…
I used to watch the Funny Car and Dragster races on TV. I don’t know when they quit televising them. Thank you for the visit!
September 23, 2012 at 10:01 pm
Oh, yes! Gotta love those oldies (both cars and music!). My first car was a ’64 Mustang, traded it for a ’69 Chevelle SS396 (which I loved!!). Now I’m driving a Dodge Charger with a Hemi….Love your angle on the challenge….!
September 23, 2012 at 5:03 pm
Hello Dianna! Lots of us gals with Mustangs! Linda too!
September 23, 2012 at 10:03 pm
Cool pic, I always likes the throaty growl of a 69′ GTO or some big block monster..:-)))
September 23, 2012 at 7:47 pm
67, 68 and 69 were great years for cars! A GTO!! CH the Hubby tried to get his Dad to let him have a GTO but he told him it was too much car!!!
September 23, 2012 at 10:05 pm
Nice take on the challenge:)
September 23, 2012 at 9:04 pm
Thank you!
September 23, 2012 at 10:06 pm
Cool post and photo, Pix! Hey, I still go out and cruise the town with my daughter once in a while. We like to see what’s going on, nosey gals that we are…ha ha! It doesn’t take us 15 min. to get around this small town. Ha ha!
September 24, 2012 at 12:07 am
I bet it would take me less time to get around our so called town! If I ever went there..
Enjoy your Monday and let’s think RAIN. We need rain rain and more rain!

What a WONDERFUL choice for “Music” – indeed the phrase “music to my ears” means something different to all of us…..there’s music in a glass of fine wine, in the sound of the falling leaves, and most CERTAINLY from the sound of a “healthy” car engine! I agree with that one for sure….good choice. No doubt your Dad got a big smile from the choice too.
Hugs, Pam (and Sam)
September 24, 2012 at 5:12 am
It’s a common joke around her about that vehicle and it’s throaty rumble. CH and I both say it’s music to our ears! I let him drive it once and awhile
September 24, 2012 at 5:58 am
A great take on the challenge! Great picture.
September 24, 2012 at 5:16 am
Thank you so much! I loved your street festival with music at the Farmer’s Market!
September 24, 2012 at 5:59 am
Music to my ears as well! Sweet shot…. I like the way you see things
September 24, 2012 at 7:02 am
I am so happy I found your blog! I found your shot on the WordPress.com Photography page.

What an intriguing take on music, Pixie.
Yesterday, we went to see a gathering of Electric Cars at St. Armand’s Circle . . . their quiet purr is music to my ears.
September 24, 2012 at 9:03 am
That sounds like a nice thing to have done yesterday! That little exhaust in the picture isn’t a big old loud muffler, it’s a low rumble-momomomomo.
September 24, 2012 at 2:38 pm
Great picture Pix and yes the car does have a song and tells a little story too.
September 24, 2012 at 9:14 am
Christina I sent you an email and I betcha it didn’t get to you! Yep the car makes music! A capture and a few words..
September 24, 2012 at 2:40 pm
Nope Pix I sure did not get it. Hmmm, did you send it to womackc@cox.net? You can also try sending it to rabbitwise5@hotmail.com
September 24, 2012 at 9:50 pm
Yes to your first addy! I thought maybe I left out the c but I checked and the address is correct in my contacts. Well, I was just asking how you were and blabbing on about nothing. I mainly just wanted to hear from you, you hadn’t posted in a bit…
September 25, 2012 at 5:59 am
That is so weird. Did you sent it to womackc@cox.net? I sent one to you at rural rambles.
September 24, 2012 at 9:51 pm
Yep, that is where I sent it.
September 25, 2012 at 5:55 am
I will post an update this weekend. Lots of changes around here. I sure wish I knew what was going on with the dang email though.
September 25, 2012 at 2:52 pm
Oh my God!! thatz stunning and unique……… the way i ‘d love to enjoy a post, great perspective….
September 25, 2012 at 1:19 am
