click, quick!

Every so often I see something with that upsweeping bold cursive type, like Coca-Cola uses, and I remember a detail of our somewhat-recent trip to Look Park in Northampton. As we were coming into town past a cemetery, I idly eyed the stones as we went by. One of them, instead of the usual sober chiseling of the name, had exactly that sort of lettering. Of course, my camera was in my hand, but I had switched it off a moment before, so on the way back, I was watching like a hawk for the stone to come into view again. When we got to it, I carefully judged the moment, clicked the shutter, and was rewarded with the response, "Oh, did you say 'click'? I thought you said, uhmm, 'crick.'"
But it's not going anywhere. On some other trip, I'll get it. This isn't like the memorable shot-that-got-away of the truck sitting in the setting -- just framed, nothing else -- of a future garage, where the truck won't ever be there again, and they finish the garage, and that's that. The stone will be there.
It's kind of a cool idea, actually. Instead of a name on your stone, you put a logo. I'll have to think about it.
