dodger Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 Hello Again: For me I know I surprised GaryMD when he met me. As I was alo surprised. The idea of us looking like our avatars made for some fun conversation. I will state that as GaryMD has a different avatar now, he does not look like that one either. He looks more like the Clint Eastwood type, or you may note resemblance to Eric Clapton. dodger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodger looks somewhat like Al Pacino in Serpico except his hair is shorter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regs. Thanks for the compliment Gary, he is much better looking than Ringo - Betsy says so. We don't argue with Betsy, but she does tell the truth on a person's looks. dodger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried editing it 8 different ways, it still won't work, but then again, I'm not surprised. ---------------- BTW, you almost had it there... the problem was your image name... "Up From Camper.JPG" has spaces in it. The forum has a harder time with those. I usually name my files like Up-From-Camper.JPG or Up_From_Camper.JPG Next lesson... resizing and Optimising for the web.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Champagne taste beer budget Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 That ain't you, thebes, is Greg Allman. Or maybe Bob Seger? I gotta run the deposit to the bank, but will throw ya a couple images when I get back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champagne taste beer budget Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 DaddyDee, not sure if that was meant facetiously or not. It's not a bad trailer, but it would be a lot better if it were only for a weekend now and then instead of living in it. Here's a pic of what was going on a few weeks ago taken from about the same spot as the one of the trailer, but turned 120 degrees right, which is north. I kept it as a link so as not to screw up anyone on dialup, sorry BackBurner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champagne taste beer budget Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 Thebes, I am acutly aware of the tornado issue, whenever it gets stormy out it's pretty tough to sleep anyway, so I turn on the tube and check the watches and warnings. If things get too nasty we have neighbors houses we can go to. This is a shot coming down the driveway. We had to angle the garage a bit because of the lot line and we needed to push the house back as far from the lake as we could, zoning calls for 100 feet setback but we got a variance for 53.

Champagne taste beer budget Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 This is the view out the kitchen window. If you checked the last pic, you can see how much of a drop there is from the drive, which is about 2 feet lower than the main upstairs floor, to the lake, though it doesn't seem that much when you're actually on the property.

Champagne taste beer budget Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 Last one. This is looking up from the camper to the house, taken 7/1/04. I'll try and get a couple more tonight so you can get an idea of the progress made in two weeks. FYI, the wall going away from the corner to the left of the screen is 56', just to give you an idea of scale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champagne taste beer budget Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 AND.... just to get back on topic, if I can remember to bring in my camera tomorrow, I'll get an image of my scary self to set up as my new avatar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the avatars - the ones where the Poster is wearing white in a blizzard is nice. dodger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
