21 June - "Tracks"

The first thing that popped into my head for the Thursday challenge "tracks" was music and song tracks!
But I haven't had much time, neither the inspiration to put that into
a picture...
so when I was on the phone to a friend and said "I'd better be making tracks"
(ie, I'd better go to Waitrose!) a lightbulb went off in my head & I shot the car wheel! ;o)....
well, it makes tracks doesn't it??!! And if I ever NEEDED that 10-20 lens it was today!!

More "tracking" entries can be seen in the forum here
