;D
Can I have a motorcycle when I get old enough?
If you take care of it.
What do you have to do?
Lot’s of things. You’ve been watching me.
Will you show me all of them?
Sure.
Is it hard?
Not if you have the right attitudes. It’s having the right attitudes that’s hard.

New mark is a City Limits sign with either population or elevation on it.  If the mark isn't claimed by Saturday, then any old City Limits sign will do.

Like this   Crappy pic but the elevation is on there.   In the field behind is a nesting pair of bald eagles.

Yes, crappy pic, but once I enlarged it, I could see the elevation statement on the bottom.

Call the next mark!

Question:  Is the town called Erie because it's so hard to see? ;D

The mark has been made!  I see two city limits signs posted, the mark maker did not require pop. or elev.  What is the next friggen mark??

Time to work on your reading comprehension. ;) ;D

Chinese Buffet!  If accepted, next mark will be a City Limits sign with either population or elevation listed. If this mark isn't found by Saturday, then any old city limit sign will do.

How about a train caboose?  Bonus if it is in use rather than a display. Yes did see one working in Neb this summer.
The sign has elevation no population on it.   Was playing with the zoom and didnt get it right.

I pass one everyday going to work.  Gave me the idea.   Should have got the pic of the working one last month.  Was painted purdy in BN colors on a work train.
Go by the sign everyday too and the eagles.  Havent seen them too much lately.  Took Lyn by them this spring and rode right next to both of them one with a prarie dog in its talons.

...don't forget, in the spirit of this thread, you're not supposed to use a photo you've ALREADY got when the mark is called.  In other words, if you got a picture 3 weeks ago of a mark that's called today, you gotta go back and get it again!

I was joking... but YA!





100+ degrees out there... all in the name of SOHC4'ing.
Had a blast, actually.
Me, the bike, a rode I've never travelled.
Lots of twisties... twistier than most that I've ridden. 
Rough as hell though.

One Caboose
