Saturday Snapshot --

To participate in the Saturday Snapshot meme post a photo that you (or a friend or family member) have taken then leave a direct link to your post on Alyce's blog At Home With Books. Photos can be old or new, and be of any subject as long as they are clean and appropriate for all eyes to see. How much detail you give in the caption is entirely up to you. Please don’t post random photos that you find online.
I had no spectacular pictures to share this week, so I decided to go with something strange I saw during a walk this month.

I'm not sure why this mannequin's legs are hanging out of the truck. It seems like the owner could have fit the entire thing in his truck. Maybe he wanted to startle people. The truck was pulling away from a yard sale.

This is hilarious. Yes, I'm sure he wanted to get a reaction from other drivers.

(Thanks for the sweet comments about our new addition).

Gaahh! That's enough to stop me in my tracks lol

Eugenia O'Neal said...

lol! I'd have done a double take for that one, for sure!

Eva @View from the Hillside said...

LOL. If startling was his intention, he succeeded.
But, I think he would have been pulled over if he met a cop. I don't think you're allowed to let things hang that far out from the side of your car, at least not around here :-)

What do you suppose he plans to use the manequin for to begin with?

Ha-ha...that's quite a sight! It's a good thing you had a camera with you on that walk...I don't think that's something you'd see everyday.

Thanks for sharing...and here's MY SATURDAY SNAPSHOT

Haha! I bet you're right! That truck is definitely a 'gawker's magnet' !

Cheryl @ Tales of the Marvelous said...

That must be someone who knows what he's doing and wants to freak people out a bit... How funny!

Alyce said...

That is definitely odd looking. I was thinking he'd be pulled over by police too, because that looks so unusual.

Laura BurgandyIce said...

I agree - looks like the owner was havin' some fun!!!!

Cathy said...

That would make people sit up and take notice, wouldn't it? LOL

Elena said...

That's definitely a weird one!

Peppermint Ph.D. said...

Ha!! That is pretty funny...I bet more than a few folks took a second look at that passing truck!! :)

Bev Hankins said...

Ha! Certainly an attention getter!

That would get my attention too. I saw a hand hanging out of a trunk that looked too real.

Nikki - Notes of Life said...

LOL! We once saw a manaquin complete with trousers and boots sticking out of some trash piled up once... we had to check it was't a real person!

Louise said...

What a fun picture. I love seeing things that make you wonder what is going on.

 Many people visit Paris in August, but mostly they run into other tourists. This year, there seem to be fewer tourists throughout the city ...
