The New Tag....

Thanks, and I just had enough light to get The New Tag!!!



It is a sculpture done with chain saw on a tree struck by lightning. Certain element of Karma involved, I guess. I'll get some better photos of the sculpture in the morning when it's less obtrusive to be walking around in the fellow's driveway.

Clue: Rahway.....

That looks like Gabrielle Giffords who is also an avid biker gal. I lived 15 yrs in Tucson and The Univ. of Ariz. is my alma mater. Heratbreaking this past week to see what has been going on there.

Yup.... Avid motorcylist and gun enthusiast. Such a shame.

But back to the game:







and the additional clue (which was, by the way, in the original tag shot):



The street view actually shows the tree before carving! How cool!

long underwear?

So, is everyone stumped, despite the perfect clues, or are you folks just waiting for the long underwear to come out of the drier so you can protect those sensitive girlie parts from frostbite?

Definitely need the tag picked up before tomorrow, so that it can get to the Polar Bear Ride Handoff!

need more clues?

p.s., please note that handoffs at Polar Bear Rides during the winter months are not considered cheating (by some!).....

No, but I could throw the bike in the back of the pick-up, ride up to the Chatterbox, unload, then deliver the tag to you. Would that be cheating?

Actually, from the inactivity, I'd say it's too cold in Sussex right now for motorcycles. Regardless, I'm gonna take the boys snowboarding at Blue Mountain this morning, so if anyone gets the tag, it's already confirmed! Any boarders? Meet me at the baselodge (lower) at 8.

And YellowIron, nice trailer Bruce. We should go for ride together! You get great mileage on the bikes that way! If we used a two-railer, we could even listen to the same music!

Ops...another water tower
Built in 1875 (restored in 1990) it was not used for drinking water, instead it was used to manufacture the stuff it was built from.
