Dbl posting to make up for your slowness, Fat? LOL JK

I have a story about them poles. Tell you how naive I am.

There was a young couple that had a real bad situation. He went one way and mr WD and I gave her and her babies a ride to her parent’s. This was to a trailer in a trailer park. Now I am not accustomed to the insides of these mobile homes. It was a stressful time and we were trying to get everyone settled. More than once I grabbed a hold of this pole that was right in the middle of everything, that I assumed was some sort of support beam. After we left, Mr WD asked, “ Can you believe they have a stripper pole right at there front door?”
I replied, “That was a stripper pole?!?!”
He said,” Yeah and you touched it!”




Yuck yuck yuck!

Well I'm glad youz all grown up, and didn't act like an innocent little on and stuck :tongue3: to it like they do in the winter time.

Try to say yuck yuck yuck! with your tongue stuck to a brass pole.

Every old tie around here use to have them. The North Platte spur to here use to turn around and go back. My great grandpa came here to build the depot. I live in house he built in 1913. I have all his stuff too. I still have the lease on the wye where train turned around. Someday when I get a MD I bet there’s a lot more there.
Every corral used to have RR ties and where ever they were hauled to you can find date nails.
 

Remember those Big Boulders I was talking about (the ones I couldn't reach) ? Well I can now :):):) 001.JPG002.JPG005.JPG007.JPG

IF, at your location it was a train stop where people got on & off there's got to be a LOT of stuff to MD ,who knows :dontknow:
 

RTR... watch those quoted pictures please... do the quote... just delete the attached photo(s).

Your "picture happy"... which so are we. :P

TreasureHunter might help us with keeping the thread alive with some better tips etc.
 

I can't tell you how pissed I am at the Discovery Network. They make me wait a full 1.5 years to see the end of a cliff hanger episode of Mountain Monsters, only for them to give me a teaser episode and them saying I have to pay to view the rest on Discovery+, a streaming "service". That's BS! You make me wait all that time, only to make me pay for it!? They are literally taking advantage of the fact that people are stuck at home with nothing to do but watch TV and are using that only to get money. Even if the money isn't that much, it's the point.

And then, when I try to complain about it, I am informed that I have to pay $5 for Discovery to even know that I posted a complaint, let alone see it!
 

I will post pics later but that is all cover with hwy and tracks now. Around 1884 is when longhorns got here. 35 miles from Ogallala but on the North river. Way back than this was in of trail.there are still shipping corrals on a few places that were taken down and put back up. 1905 RR end of line. In middle teens sugar beets from 90 miles on up river caused U.P to go to scottsbluff.
Now they go to Henry wyo than up to coal mine by Gillette wyo. Nothing but coal trains. Was like 80a day peak. Way down now. IDK how many.

I’m the picture trouble maker.. I know, I can take it, so what if I got roughing the QB he won’t wake up till half time of homecoming dance...lol

AARC, I wouldn't worry too much about the pictures, if thread develops a problem it would only be locked not deleted and you can start a "Part 3 The Sequel". LOL. The 1st thread is still there, it wasn't deleted just locked from new posts.
 

Bill that’s called fasting? I think. A little starvation and water only helps those can’t just swallow another shot of rum in the morning.?. You can buy dandy lions in store? Those thistles named Canada buy in store? It’s funny thing to me. All in fun my friend.
