    Tornado ripped through rural NH in summer, 2008 for 40-50 miles and they're still logging off the stuff to this day. Destructive ones are as rare as in MA but this is our recent notable one. The thick woods used to come right up to the road here in Barnstead, NH but the house across the street (about where I'm taking the pic) was not touched.


    new tag....Airport traffic control tower....jet in pic not required, but you'll see a Southwest one if you look close....

        Yeah, got one next door, but no tower. Click the radio, lights come on, etc. I thought BonanzaDave would've tagged this one already. If I get time, I'll ride 30 miles south for our "big" airport.

            I just went to 2 regional airports. 1 had been closed for a while, so hope was dim but it was nearby. Then I rode to what used to be called Mount Comfort Airport, where they hold the annual air show, complete with Blue Angels. It is now called Indianapolis Regional Airport, and for the life of me, there is no control tower. How do they control the flights in and out?

              Flights need no control. They do just fine on their own.
              It's just job security for some feds.

                      Hey, wait a minute...I think you cut and pasted that trailer in the pic of your backyard grassy airstrip in the "hills" of NJ...they're always 2 story trailers, right? The higher grass makes for softer landings. But how did you ride that GS out there without your gear on?

                        Yea, I can get it...I'll just head west before going home out east.

                        I'm assuming Tom must be at work if he has all that and no bike.

                        Edit:

                        Peterson AFB's and Colorado Springs Airport's Tower (see blue arrow). I could have taken it on base but I might have had some more unpleasant looks than I would have gotten otherwise.



                        Next tag - A Fedex, DHL, or UPS truck

                            I'll get one tonight. Might be bigger than a truck.

                              UPS truck...hopefully, just the trailer will do...


                              If that is acceptable...than the next tag is a transportation museum...
                              Car, boat, train, plane, bicycle, motorcycle, canoe or trolly museum...

                                Good tags Bob. Hmmm, this could be interesting.

                                When are some of our overseas friends going to jump in on this?
