Thumbs up This was a different Cobra experience

I came out of the dry cleaners today and a woman who had been sitting in a car parked near Naga came over and said, "Excuse me, but I thought you should know, while you were inside, a car pulled off Rock Road and stopped in front of your car and they started taking pictures of it with their cell phones."

She was concerned they were "casing the joint." She said, "that's a real nice car and I'd hate for anything to happen." Nice lady. I told her I appreciated her concern and thanked her for telling me. That was really nice of her, but, as is typical for us, it's an instant car show wherever you park.

I think I'll go Google yellow cobra and see if anyone's posted pictures of Naga. I think Rod 'DV/DT' did that once and found pictures of his car on the internet.

Yep, if you search on "Ottawa Cobra" my pic is still at the top. One is the cropped image I posted here and the other is the original posted by a guy named Earl from Sacramento, CA on his blog who was visiting Ottawa.
