I guess that's the guy. His sculptures are throughout the town and just outside of town along the road in from the south is a big stallion.

This must have been his shop. I think it was a motorcycle repair shop and I assume also his "studio"

I'll bet you're right. It would take a lot of avgas to get a helicopter high enough to shoot an aerial picture of your place from here...

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

my folks bought a couple of these over the years, sometimes they would send a postcard beforehand

photos taken from airplanes and they would bring different sizes out, prices were negotiable



'86 Ford on the trailer, '83 chevy and '77 olds up by the house



I suspect their prices have gone up if they're even still in business

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

We have several of those kinds of pics from the farm my wife grew up on (over 100 years in her family). Her uncle was a helicopter pilot and he had his own helicopter, one of those kind you used to see on MASH. He took all the pics and did it of other folks too, only charge was the cost of the pics.

When I first became a part of her family nearly 40 years ago they had family picnics every summer and he would land his helicopter in the field and give rides. I never did it, chickened out lol.

Plus there's Google Earth and drones, so that thins things down. The business is out of WA State. I guess pilots were like franchises around the nation who sent the images back to the home office. The home office name and address are on the back

That's neat. But I don't think I want any helicopter rides, either. There's something about an aircraft that can't soar when power is lost

Those are great. It was a good service. I forget how they sold me mine. I'm not one who takes well to attempts to sell me a thing I'm not shopping for. but I was shown the picture first, however it went. Pretty neat but I was about to turn it down when I noticed my son in the back yard looking up at the helicopter. SOLD!

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

I went to the garage for starting fluid and Fritz was looking around the engine room when I got back

if I handed him any tools he'd either destroy it or lose it

he just likes to be underfoot most of the time, has to be involved in whatever we're doing

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

especially eating a sandwich... and steak, chicken, fish, shrimp, etc.

doesn't get fed from the table but he does follow every plate to the kitchen hoping something gets scraped into his bowl

I'll cheat something his way sometimes because he's such a hard worker

^ People talk about a dog's life, that's what our lay abouts do. One sits there and looks into her bed (the one in the family room) until somebody goes and smooths the blanket out for her.

I used to have a lab mix who seemed to think the world of me. He once crawled under a truck and laid on top of me while on a creeper. Maybe I kinda liked him too.
