Thanks for rescuing the game.
I thought that I had killed it for the winter.

If I would have been forced to pay $8.50 just to get in the parking lot to take a picture you would have! Fortunately I was out riding anyway doing a Fire and Ice winter tour being played on Facebook. I'll take any excuse to go for a ride.
Alright... this one has sat long enough. My bike and a whimsical mailbox. It's even a motorcycle theme...
And now for the new tag, get a picture of the birthplace of some historically important person:
This is the birthplace of Daniel Webster

Well done. I know where the birthplace of General Douglas McArthur is, but I'm not sure there's a sign. I guess I gotta go look, huh?

Well played sir! I like that mailbox. There is one at a weld shop near my house with the post made from welded together chevy crankshafts.
Don't need to have a sign. Just figure out a way to prove it is what you say it is.
That should be pretty easy in the intarwebs / Google age.
It was pretty nippy out there for my lunch time ride... Good thing it was only ~ 100 miles.

Birth place of Douglas McArthur
It's ironic I suppose that McArthur's birthplace had such militarily historical significance.

How about a chimney without the house -- visible in the background.
Or, to keep it from being too difficult, just a fire damaged residence. There should be a few of those around.

No problem. Chimney / no house ...... or ........ fire damaged.
I didn't want to make it so difficult it'd just sit.
That is the quandry in games like this. You want to make it difficult enough that it requires a little preplanning and a nice ride to get it, but not so hard that it kills the game.
Nice grab, by the way.

It is a quandry. I tried to make it something that you'd find in rural America just about anywhere. I know of three standing chimneys like that and could probably find more pretty easily. Burned homes usually get fixed or shoved down pretty quickly, but in a rural area, they may stand there a while.

Nice grab. Went quick too. Neat idea for the new challenge
Oh geeze... Where am I gonna find Christmas decorations this time of year?
I wasn't eligible for the grab (yet) but had the chimney one at the ready...
(Not an actual Bruce since this was just a file photo from an ADV tag last year. That is Mount Monadnock in the backdrop.)

Bump!
Almost three weeks and no grab. This isn't a hard tag, so that can't be the problem. I know some of you are having snow/weather issues, but surely there must be someone out there that can grab this and move the game along. Zero mile garage tags are acceptable.

My helmet is on too tight....
Thanks. Been watching this since I joined the forum back in August. This seems like fun and good excuse to get and ride. Was a bit cold this morning- and not all the roads are dry- so not a long day of riding, but enough to curb the need for a day or two...
