Great Job . Is your son addicted to them now?

These are great training tools for following directions.

My nephews learned A Lot.
Me , I don't Need no Stinking Instruction's

I bought some of the old kits like that several years ago from brickset.

My Nephews would come over and build the new sets and I got addicted.

They grew up before I got them building ones like that in your 1st picture.

I think about 2016 they were to big to come over and play Lego's any more.

I still have several sets.
They are in unopen boxes .

Set 42008, 42009 and 42043 are just a few.
Of course I bought them for my Nephews

Also, I don't know why there is a set in there called the Yellow Submarine.

I find this to be silly.

In the interest of safety, let’s restrict traffic so we cause a head on collision haha

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

I've eaten cheese curds. That's what cheese looks like before it's squished into blocks and wheels. It's less dense in that form.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

That K/20 Suburban is awesome. I believe that's factory. Only the C30 was the long Panel and no C/30 Suburbans. A friend back in the '80s had a factory '65 K/20 Panel

I thought curds were an ethnic group.

I saw where the Denver airport shut down due to high winds

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

I like curds it’s the part that is skimmed off the milk during the cheese making process .

Most Newspaper uses soy ink .

All hitched together.
I doubt they were towing like this, probably just done to keep from getting impounded.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

got this John Deere ride-on from my FIL. i think it's a 2012, but it's pretty minty and runs perfect.
instead of fighting with my son on who cuts the lawn, were now fighting over who gets to cut the lawn...i let him win...

My guess it's some sort of pressure vessel for a power generation plant or possibly from a oil refinery.

since there's only one tractor pulling, I suspect only air

I posted this before but shows how they rig for moving more weight, one pulling, two pushing

and more tires, LOTS more tires

To me that looks like overkill trailer and tractor for the size of the load , or the picture is deceiving.
But sure is impressive .
