My Grandma in about 1941. Any idea what kind of car that is? I've studied the body lines, but I haven't matched it yet. It somewhat resembles an Essex.

I have no idea what kind of car it is but your grandma looks like an incredibilly cool lady. Great attitude!

Weldangrind · 01-06-2011, 01:03 AM

She's really cool.

I drove out to Edmonton for her 85th birthday bash last August, and we had a great time together. The photo of her in the car was one of many I used in a Power Point presentation.

I was out geocaching on Saturday before the snow on Sunday and came across this odd tree in a park.

Cool pic. I hardly ever see steam powered trees around here!

What's geocaching :?:

X2!

You will see a lot of interesting sights while geocaching, Doc! I will defer to Cal for an explanation of geocaching.

Incidentally, the most important holiday of the year is fast approaching! I was born, and raised in Western Pennsylvania, so I am referring to Groundhog Day, of course!

Using billion dollar satilites to hunt for tupperware.

The longer answer is going to Geocaching.com and downloading co-ordinants for "caches" hidden by other people. Many times people will hide a cache near something interesting. Of course somtimes it is only a 35mm film canister in a lamp post at WalMart.

Sometimes the 35mm film canister is stashed in a steam powered tree!

Don't forget to prepare for Groundhog Day!

Usually that POS rodent gives nothing but bad news.

Godbless whoever tries to cut that tree down in 30years

Yea, I was cutting down a dead tree and found the hog wire in it. Not good on your chain saw.

I've never hit anything more annoying then barbwire and cement, but at the sawmill I hauled for last summer they had a couple cannon balls, old plow blade, and a pitch fork that they've come across while sawing up old veneer walnut.

I'd say the ole Volvo has seen better days.....those days being about two or three decades ago, however the MB is pretty sweet. I could probably live in that.
