New list

New list for 9/23/2012

U2 songs

1) An Cat Dubh - anything with a black cat in it - real or pictured

2) Zooropa - a petting zoo, a full zoo, like that

3) No Line on the Horizon - a shot showing a good view of the horizon

4) Into the Heart - a cardiac center or similar

5) Fire - either something burning, or alternatively since that may be tricky, a fire station

wildcard if you can't find one of the above - in this case, the I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For item - Even Better Than The Real Thing - find a Coca Cola ad.

That makes it 3 in a row for the red "V"!! I'd try and make it 4, but prior plans for tomorrow probably won't allow it.

Very nice job, wb. I think you've played this game before. I don't know about bonus points for the Husqvarna, however......since they started in Sweden.

Yep.

Former (and possibly future) Husaberg owner.

Seven days? Too difficult? Need changes/alternates?

Not too difficult, but we've had a lot of rain here recently (more in the forecast, as well) and a couple of things on the list require a bit of a ride. I don't intentionally do rain when tagging. I ride in enough rain when touring.

I may not get to it this week either, because in addition to rain in the forecast, I have to put new shoes(Avon Storm 2 Ultra's) and change the oil and filter on the V, in preparation for my upcoming trip to your state. Btw, I will let you know when I'm scheduled to leave.

Grabbed when a 60% chance of rain turned into mostly sunny:
1)anything with a black cat in it

2) a real zoo

3) instead of a horizon view, I'm using the wild card here: a coca cola sign

4) a cardiac center

5) a fire station

That makes it 4 in a row for the red "V"!

CTFD in the photo for a fire station, stands for Chippewa Township Fire Department.

New multi grab up shortly.

Next items to find:

1) a building with a slate roof

2) a building with 2, or more, arched windows

3) a suspension bridge

4) a barn with advertising painted on it

5) a "free standing" clock tower

Wild card) a bus or train station, that's currently being used as such. You can use one, or the other, if you can't find one of the above

Thanks, BadCold.

That's funny about the black cat. You wouldn't think it would be that hard to find, but it was the last item for me, as well, and definitely the most difficult. I had a perfect horizon pic in mind(a shot looking out over lake Erie), but decided to save some time and miles, and use the wildcard option instead.

How we doin' multi grabbers? Do I need to make adjustments, or have y'all been too busy, or just plain lazy this past week?

This one's a little trickier than I thought it would be. Having a hard time with a couple of them. The only suspension bridge anywhere near here is a foot bridge and it's down a trail a mile or two... And a slate roof is just going to have to happen. Can't look it up, or I just haven't found a way to look one up...

I wouldn't sweat it just yet.
