Re: Tag-o-rama Gone Global

How about a vintage passenger car model in O-Scale?



Now your bike or scooter in front of a rv/motor-home. This photo taken today at Fairview Riverside State ParK, Madisoville, LA

Re: Tag-o-rama Gone Global

The toy train is cute, but I don't think it reflects the spirit of the game, which is "get out and ride". I'd go along with it if you had just taken the bike out to the local park and taken the same shot.

Benefit of the doubt. He may have just come back from a ride and seized the moment.

Re: Tag-o-rama Gone Global

[attachment=0:1377uxhw]broken camera 007.JPG[/attachment:1377uxhw]Time to get back in the game. Rode up to Whistler for a coffee and no motorhomes/RVs were handy and safe to park beside. Best I could do was catch up to one on the road and try for a pic while moving.

New goal is find a buggy garage at a far off market. Well, not too far off or you might get home after dark and miss dinner.

Might mention I'm surprised that the pics showed up at all. I dropped the camera earlier and did some major damage. In the garbage now. Time to use my back up camera.

I really didn't put that up to be serious just thought that single engine civil aviation planes die not qualify as "Military AircrafT Active or retired." I figured that if you let that slide as a substitute then I should be able to substitute toy trains for real. I did start my engine and ride around the block before taking the photo. Just trying to make a point. I think we should still be looking for military aircraft. I could have played off my tag weeks ago but wanted to give everyone else the opportunity.

This is just a game. Relax and enjoy it folks. Let's not take it too seriously. :2tup: :rawk:

Re: Tag-o-rama Gone Global

I agree, just let it slide. Once I put up a milestone as a tag and said that any distance marker will do. Then, someone posted a 2 ft high concrete utility marker pole as the "tag found". No problem. Someone got out and found "it". Just consider, not everyone is blessed with the same mental capacities as you are. :2tup:


What is clearly against the rules, is that Water Warrior tells us to find a "buggy garage at a far off market" but does not include his picture of it.

Good thing there is a "tag-o-rama rules" thread... Skunkhome, please also read those rules, as to henceforth abide by them.
Here is the first part of the first rule:

So, WW please add the pic of your bike and the buggy garage.

All others, as long as no new tag has been posted, the old tag is still valid. In this case, a motorhome.

Re: Tag-o-rama Gone Global

LOL! WW, I think you tripped up the fellow from Maryland, USA with your Canadian English!
5th, zoom in on the sign over WW's bike in that photo to get the translation.

If my foot feels strong enough I hope to be back in this game in the next week or two.
Keep the game rollin' guys!

Re: Tag-o-rama Gone Global

It does appear we are separated by a common language. I should have been a little more clear and said "grocery buggy".

I would assume the new target is another Buggy" and whatever else is available.

Re: Tag-o-rama Gone Global

From Michigan, USA and have not heard it called either of those things We call it a "Cart Return" here. I know what you meant though with the picture you included and will be on an adventure to find one in two days if the tag is still available
