I've been reading that the gesture control sets off the laser detection when mounted under the mirror with a Blendmount

The laser goes off for like a second when it starts up because of the gesture control.... I don't even notice it....

It's in Upper Freehold/Cream Ridge in NJ. There was another street there that I wanted to use as a location, but I couldn't frame properly.

I actually have a cool story. It's a really quiet town. When I pulled up to the restaurant there was an older gentleman sitting on the porch, just to the left of where I took the photo. I do some photography as a hobby but I also know that sometimes people don't like to be bothered - so I was a little uncomfortable about parking the car there to take photos. When I was done, he called me over.

He introduced himself and pulled out a photo of he and his wife. He told me that she had passed and that they used to come to the restaurant all the time as it was one of their favorite places. He comes to sit there to remember her and the times they had together. I asked if I could take his picture and he told me to tell the world about him. He made it easy to get a good shot.

Missing the love of your life, and wistful memories of better times in the past... That's a poignant moment that makes me realize that someday, this pursuit of material things like cars will have lost its meaning against the landscape of what's truly important. Thanks for the reminder, Saxguy. A car is just a car and is meaningless without love to share it with. I plan to share this with my woman very soon.
