And here are the extra vanity plates:
Water-dog
Oh, that's a lovely poem!
ReplyDeleteI like that plate H2O-K9. I wonder what they meant by it? "Water dog" is a nickname for a kind of salamander, but that seems unlikely! Maybe they photograph dogs underwater!
When I read the H2O-K9, I assumed it was their boat dog - usually a lab or retriever. Lots of waterdogs here! But it could be a salamander, too! Wish I could have asked them.
DeleteHeh, I interpreted that first plate as "water cooler." That's the problem with some of these vanity plates -- the spellings are too creative for their own good!
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying your theme.
Black and White: H is for Hercinia
I wondered about whether this one was actually water cooler, too! But I decided to go with watercolor. Sometimes when I photograph the plates I get to talk to the person who owns it and get their story OR I can see it is on a car with a business logo on the side so it gives me more of a clue. Nothing for this one though!
DeleteLooking at the image I now remember why I thought it was "watercolor" when I took the picture. Do you see it, too?
DeleteBeautiful!!!
