    I also vote for marvinsc and his creative take on the theme. Every time I look at that pic of Rich's it feels like I am looking at a cover from the old Saturday Evening Post magazine--art suitable for hanging.

      They're all good this week, but I cast my vote for Burque73. I'm a sucker for a well-constructed tunnel, and have been morbidly fascinated by Vetter Windjammers, since I was a pimply youth reading Cycle World Magazine in the 1970s.

        Voting for gustovh. I read just the other day, somewhere, that when a motorcyclist places his helmet on the ground behind the bike like that, it’s a sign for others that the rider is in distress/needs assistance. Was that the case here?

          Well, I'm glad nobody put up a pic of passing gas.

              No not the case, what you don’t see is Sandy’s bike behind me taking the pic. It is a habit of mine to place the helm on the ground, you might find it anywhere around my bike. Cheers…now where is that highball?

                Saturday morning tally time!
                Close voting but it seems to me we have a winner!

                Two votes each for Kerrfunk, KiwiAlpha, Burque, and Gustovh, and a victorious three for Marvinsc’s unique take, so after somebody checks the count, congratulations, Scott!

                Scott, what’s next?

                  I am a bit surprised, I had to improvise since I live in the flat end of Kentucky. What we have here is Water instead of mountains, this week's theme: "Water feature".

                  Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

                            I deleted my last submission... If it was specified H2O I'd be okay. But it stated "water FEATURE". Frozen H2O is not a water feature.

                              I think it is a feature of water that it becomes a solid at 32F/0C.
