If you want to wait until the 3rd, I could take a picture of my car from the tower I work in. We park right below it. I'm off work until then though. |

Drone shot would totally count.
Pruneman- that sounds cool. It’s worth waiting for the right shot- and the 3rd’ll be here before we know it!

Sorry for the kinda blurry picture, took it with my phone.
Next challenge: Your VW by/with/ near and/or next to a large timekeeping device. This can be something like a clock, sundial, or even something like a bank time/temperature sign. Oh and Happy New Year everyone! _________________ 1959 Fjord Blue Volkswagen Beetle

There is a third as well. Would have been a 4th, but I accidentally cut off the white giha to the left of the image. |

Alrightly!
I think for a good chunk of the country this should be fairly easily fulfilled in the next few days.
Your VW next to (hopefully not in!) a large body of frozen water (lake, river, etc). |
Well, that screws all of the southwest, back in draught conditions and way-above-normal temps! (thankful for the latter, given the bitter cold on the rest of the country!) |
