Thank you so much for taking us along Mr. Chet and for the photos Ms. Janet, Y'all are a blessing to us on the forum, but I'm sure not as much as if we knew you personally.


y'all are an inspiration to Barb and me.


were praying for your continued health and happiness.[emoticon]

I never thought that we'd have 2500 views when we started.

Thanks for traveling with us.

...I noticed that you cover the dashboard surface with a towel of some sort; is this to deflect some of the incoming solar, reducing the brutal heat build-up under the windshield?

We have always laid out a white terry cloth towel completely across our dash during summer while driving, to completely eliminate this heat build-up, and the heat destruction of electronic instruments sitting under our front windshield...

I have always used a piece of flat black cloth on the dash to eliminate reflections when we take pictures. I purchase a new piece every uear or so and cut it to fit.

Some times the wind blows it askue when the doors are open... then Janets pictures include the reflection of the airconditioning grill or the GPS module.

I also try to keep the windows clean... some times the weather doesn't cooperate.

Hey, that is a great idea Chet. So often I don't bother taking pictures through the windshield because of the reflections of the top of the dash. Even if not taking pictures the reflections are still annoying. Next time I use the truck in the sunshine I'll see whether it is worth doing the same as you.

Cheers,

Steve.
