Park the second-to-last car

Today's "Saturday Scavenger Hunt" word is "Obsession". It was chosen by Ananda Girl.

I love to take photos. I guess that might count as an obsession, right? So I took a few photos today.

The first photo is of a sign in the office window of the parking deck. I guess the way to make sure your car will not turn up missing is to make sure it is the second-to-last car when you park it.
This dark ominous "concrete canyon" is found between the parking deck and an office building. A skyscraper hotel (the Park Place) is found at the end. Maybe this is a good place for them to hide the last car that parked in the parking deck.
As I walked down the street, I could not help but notice this sweet little tri-color basset hound. The owner said she was smaller because she was of the variety known as field basset. Looks like she has a good nose, and might be able to sniff out missing cars.

What a great post. I like your obsession. What a sign to put in a parking lot! Ha ha ha...

I like the shot between the buildings. We don't have tall buildings here. Two story or less.

I had a field basset named Poppy who looked so much like this one. What a nice memory this gave me. She was the sweetest dog.

Big grin.

There are a very few skyscrapers. Otherwise, there is a very silly law to limit downtown buildings ot 5 or so stories. Silly because it encourages sprawl and covering more land with concrete.

Great photos, dmarks. It's definitely a healthy obsession you have there, as well as entertaining.

What an amazingly beautiful animal. I really like hounds, blood hounds as well as basset hounds.

Love that sign, would like to put it up in my driveway.
