Cars I Have Owned

 1972 Ford LTD

My first car was a  green 1970 Ford LTD, I was 17 and the year was 1983.

1976 AMC Hornet
My second car was a brown AMC Hornet. Both of my first two cars were hand me down cars from my father, which I paid for, but got a good deal on.

1980 Dodge Omni
My first car purchase from a dealer was a cream Dodge Omni four door hatchback.


1986 Toyota Tercel
When I married, I inherited a blue Toyota Tercel.
This was one of the best cars I had driven, no problems and it was light and nimble.

1991 Chevy Beretta
The first new car we bought as a family starting out was a red Chevy Beretta coupe.

1998 Nissan Truck
In 1998, I was looking for a vehicle and Nissan had great lease deals on their pickup trucks so I leased a silver pickup for like $125 a month, with no money down. Crazy right?

2000 Ford Ranger
After the lease on the Nissan ran out I switched to Ford and leased a white Ranger for $200 a month.

2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser
My second new car purchase was a navy blue PT Cruiser. This became my favorite car and I drove it for 10 years.




2012 Mercedes C250 Sport
My current car and my overall favorite is my white Mercedes C250. The car is fun to drive and the family loves it, too.


So there you have it, thirty plus years of cars.

If you have any questions or comments let me know.

Cheers,
Wade

Poetry and the Midjourney AI

I have been testing out the Midjourney AI for a while now and have loved exploring what it can create from a simple prompt. You can see my creations and prompts on Instagram at @artbywadeai . Recently, I tried feeding the AI two of my poems and was very impressed with the results.  The first poem I gave the AI was my Sunshine Reaching one. Go take a look and then check out these great images. The prompt I used for the Midjourney AI was the text of the poem with the parameters --chaos 25 --ar 3:2 appended at the end as shown below: With rays of warmth, he embraces her soul. Arms, iron strong, surround their love. Sunshine reaching, fills the room. With feathered whispers, they embrace the day. --chaos 25 --ar 3:2 Here are the first images returned. From these, I choose the second and last to render as full size images or upscale. Here are those results. After this experiment, I gave the AI my Strength  poem and was very pleased with those results. Here is the full prompt for Strength:
