Drew,
I enjoyed the photo.
Shortly after they completed that Vista overpass I was parked very much like you were on a pleasent Sunday morning waiting for an eastbound manifest. I had my 4-ways on as I was parked in the breakdown lane. After a few minutes of waiting a NHP pulled over behind the pick-up and he got out and walked over to were I was standing. The first thing he said was "Is everything OK?" Of course I answered Yes, then explained what I was doing, which included telling him about railfanning.
He says back to me; "Oh, I know what that's all about, I have a nephew that's into that hobby. You have a nice day" He turned and walked back to his car and left.
Again, as always, very nice photo.
