Thursday Doors: An Expensive Photo

#ThursdayDoors #writingprompt

No, I didn’t get arrested and have to post bail.

I took this photo at Big O Tires, where I had a bad misalignment fixed and bought four new tires, since mine were all old and worn, much like myself.

The towtruck looks a big small compared to the vehicles it’s supposed to be able to tow, but I it might be able to handle the duck, provided the duck cooperates just a little bit. Of course, knowing ducks, that’s pretty unlikely.

A WRITING PROMPT FROM ME TO YOU: An expensive photo

About

I was born in Louisville, Kentucky, but now live in the woods in southern Indiana. Though I only write fiction, I love to read non-fiction. The more I learn about this world, the more fantastic I see it is.

    We have a pretty new Big-O Tires here. Did a decent job on my brakes. Didn’t have that cool type of doors tho. What the heck?!

      I should have clarified: That picture was of a model they had on one of the cashier counters. lol Sometimes what I mean is so loud in my head I forget to actually say it. 😀

    Four new tires — on the Fun Ways to Spend Money Index, it ranks low.

      Preach it, Sister! That’s what I get for not replacing them one at a time before they all wore out at once.

    I think my comment was eaten by the gremlins. I’m sorry if I’ve just repeated myself, but:
    That’s a wonderfully quirky photo, Marian.

    “An expensive photo” is a great prompt. That could go, well… a thousand ways. Hugs.

    The tow truck looks inclined to say “I think I can, I think I can…” maybe that will help. I’m glad you got your car back rolling straight.
