So I Was Thinking
 

hey guys and girls,

So i've been thinking and think this is the right place for the post



I spend alot of time talking on the phone to all types of people from all over the place, we never truly understand the type of person they are because we havent seen there area. I have a passion for views and hometowns. I think im going to start a album of pictures of my area, People travel from all over the world to see this area (I dont know why) so why not show you guys that have never been here a peice of it. Why dont some of you do this also, i would love to see some folks home towns! I'll also post some pics of the custom $1mil+ homes! I know it seems silly but its still neat! sorry if im just taking up usefull space on somthing useless

Nice idea.. but where are your pics?

i havent got that far yet!

OH AND I ALSO LIVED LESS THAN AN HOUR FROM CHARLES MANSONS BIRTH PLACE AND LESS THAN 30 MINUTES FROM ONE OF THE PRISONS HE WAS IN, WHICH IS THE SAME PRISON THAT JUNIOR JOHNSON SPENT A FEW YEARS IN FOR RUNNING SHINE......

Nice pics! Interesting place you live there... lots of history. What is the design that the Indians made supposed to be?

Thats an Indian Larry Chopper

??...huh...

I love Canada, it's so beautiful. I lived in Alaska for a year and would love to go back. I hate Virginia, but people love to visit here. I still don't quite understand why.

uh uh its so pretty here, everywhere........

i don't have any good pics of where i live, except for my avatar. but here is a video explaining about the place where i live, and don't worry theres still people with mullets down here.

ill see about getting some pics.

that is "SERPENT MOUND" it is a snake eating a egg. The head of the serpent is aligned to the summer solstice sunset and the coils also may point to the winter solstice sunrise and the equinox sunrise.

we also have the Seven Caves, its a collection of 7 caves that WERE open to the public but are now a nature preserve (THANKS, YOU NATURE FREAK HIPPIES), you cant access them til next year MAYBE, they are closed down........kind of a sore subject around my area......my area is so full of stuff to see i could spent 2 days showing it off driving around.

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

is that a "MEXI-MULLET"????????????

heres a link for now!

What town in Ohio? Talking about shine I was wondering, it must be near New Straightsville

Heres a home we just finished, I'll try to get some pics of it up as well! I know i started this thing, I just havent had any time to post!

nice house!

It was a rough one, Most of those logs are 1500lbs plus! the wind never quit blowing, stayed 110 through the summer and -10 in the winter . The Top ridge polls for the center, I had to strap 25ft 1,000 douglas fir 12x12's to the fork of the biggest Allterain fork lift cat makes extend all the way out to get them in posistion, We had to hook two dump trucks to it, It would float all over the place! the guys in the center were 40 foot from the floor and could push me side to side!

All in all its a great house though! Why dont you buy it 2500HD?

logan how did you get the google earth to be so clear, I try and zoom in on a town and its a blurr:sos:

Thanks
Ian

That is nice, but the price scared the hell out of me. :w2: :w2:

You should see the last one they just finished... The Labor blew the cost of that home out of the water, This one dosent have a view at all! Look at the view that one has!!!

i live in greenfield, its over 2 hours from New Straitsville, i didnt use google earth IC, but the problem with GE is that sometimes out in the country they dont take up close pictures, im guessing you dont know who Junior Johnson is Buckeye????? CCI in Chillicothe is the prison im talking about Buckeye......from the front porch of my old house i had a perfect view of the foothills of the appalachian mountains.

here is my farm in the green, the red is what the US Government imminent domained from us for minimun land price, 100 acres, 650 acres is what we have left.....

thats all I can find for now. I tried to find a picture of my high school so yall could laugh at me a total of about 40 people in my senior class but of course cant find one.

and you was related to probably 15-20 of them???? LOLOLOL, i had a college buddy that had a graduating class of 12, the highschool had a total of like 50 kids.......of his graduating class him and 4 others were related, they owned like 20K acres in NE Colorado.....

Some pictures from around my home town area:

First one is my high school--been 12 years already. :argh:
Second is our race track--I live up on the hill to the left top corner of the picture.
Third is the Rusty Tractor Restaraunt. If you come through Elma, stop in, ask for Jeannie, she'll take good care of ya, order a Yak burger and Tractor Treads, have a hand dipped milkshake, leave a good tip, ask to speak to Sonny (owner), shake his hand, tell him Frenchy's boy Dan sent you, then kick him in the nuts and tell him to lower his friggin' prices.

*Oh, and my old man will probably be there, too....that little Tracker parked out front is his scoot-around town rig. lol *

Some nice buildings! My graduation class only had 42 kids! :5:
Tried to find some Pittsville pictures online but couldn't find any.

Our friend from Boone is Robbie Gaines. He has a sister Julie and a brother Lee. Robbie was stationed up here in the Navy for 3 or 4 years and that's how we met him...

I know Boone is pretty small. It wouldn't surprise me if you knew them too!

42!! mine was 750!

i graduated with like 125....

You graduated?


lol

I also like seeing different pics of places Ive never been and seeing where other people live and what their lives are like.

I dont really have any pics of my hometown but I have some pics of Jasper - which is 4 hours away. The inlaws recently moved there:
