    Kind of crappy pic, but there were vehicles, yard debris from Irma and trash blocking the view. I used this tag years ago with my 1000G(pic below). Recycled with Red this time.

    Next tag is has multiple possibilities. Old train bridge, your bike under a bridge, power plant, river and a water tower. Take your pick.

      That house seems to have held up through the hurricane, short of yard decor and different foliage it looks the same.

            Hoping someone can find a giraffe or something else in this mural.
            Would be really cool for a member in Africa to jump in with the real thing.

              Here's a neat list of ideas based on a similar game being played elsewhere. Since this game has been going on so long most original tags have been had.

                  Nobody has seen a pic or statue of a giraffe, elephant, rhinoceros, wildebeest, or umbrella thorn tree as in this mural?

                      Should be worth the wait, but I think Roger has the itch to ride that Vee now.

                        A Taste of Africa.

                        I give The Allenton Hippo

                        Sculpture of the 120,000 year old skeleton discovered in the UK in the 1890s. The original is housed in the Derby Museum.














                        And for the next challenge I have the Rolls Royce Aerospace test facility.



                        So I'll accpet either aerospace engineering or Rolls Royce as the tag.

                          Now thats cool. Also a very interesting link that mentions other typically African animals remains found there as well. I really wanted to be an archeologist as a youngster and ancient creatures still pique my interest. Our Sandia mountains that stand over ten thousand feet above sea level have fossilized sea creatures in some areas. Just fascinating stuff.

                          You know how it is, Rick. New toy, gotta play......
                          Thanks for not discounting the tag since it wasn't a GS

                            How could I? I've used my FZ6 and Cavalcade for tags.

                                Just before sundown, I found an Aerospace place. I thought for sure I'd find one in the science and technology park outside the Air Force base but nope.

                                Anyway, this one is located by the Albuquerque International Airport, South of the runway.
