    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Nice bike, I think. I view the world on a 2" flip phone. Now if you were riding one of those GS1000's you would have been 12hrs early.
 
I just got back I forgot the damn camera, lol.
Let me get a quick bite and I'll run back out.
 
TAG!
The Paradise Hill one would have been too easy being so close, so I went one town over, to St. Walburg.
These signs are pretty much standard 'welcome to wherever' out here.

Next tag in a minute.
Tank
 
This tag will be "crude oil" related.
Mining, drilling, pumping, refining etc.
This is what we call a 'battery'
There is so much oil under this spot that they use these pumps to get it.
Across the road from this is another pump set up the same size, but the picture didn't turn out well.

This next picture is a much more common sight out here.
These are collection tanks, which sit on a drilled well, slowly pumping up oil from the ground and into the tanks.
The pumps usually run on natural gas that comes up from the well itself, making it possible to install these anywhere, no need of power lines.

This is pretty much the basis for the entire economy up here.
Most people earn MUCH more than they ever would doing the same type of jobs elsewhere.

Good luck!

In this picture you can see how prolific the collection tanks are are around here. There are three times as many in this valley than I could fit into the picture though.

Yeah...tank got a tag, just teasing, we let the easy ones slip by as we know there isn't crap out by you, but nice tag on the crude, got several refinery's here, if I get a break tomorrow, maybe I'll jump back in.
 
Thanks for the tour Tank. To me, that's what this game is all about. learning a little about other people's environment.;)
 
haha the buffalo herd was too far from the road for good pictures, and being a long weekend the lakes were swamped with campers, only other thing was the oil tanks, lol.


Tank
 
It has been done, but it is now the tag. It's unavoidable to repeat tags. It's all about the ride. Welcome to "the game"...
 
I just did a search and found it had already been tagged... Sorry guys. Do we have a list of what has been used already?
 
The tag is fine. I usually go through the previous few days, just so I don't repeat something recent. As Spyder, said its about the ride.

As others said, your tag is fine. Game's been going on so long that we will have some repeats. Besides, a windmill is a nice tag to get out for some country riding. If we kept repeating a specific street sign tag then that might get boring.
