I took the pic from the front of the building, they were working on the back & had the road blocked off.

I think it's the wrong building but I'll let Monte make that call.

Looks like different buildings to me.

Oceanbum · 09-04-2012, 01:27 PM

Just getting ready to go after the new tag but I think they're right. The foundation looks different and there's a chimney on the side I don't see in both photos.

Rats!

I do know of another observatory in Delaware.

I agree,

I found both on Google maps.

Oops.

I guess i'll have to go tag the correct observatory.

you do that, meanwhile, I'm moving on with bikeneil's John Mitchel Memorial Park tag, on 753 in Greenfield:

Tag!

sion · 09-04-2012, 03:55 PM

Here's my reasoning for moving on:

1. I went after the Greenfield tag in good faith, not realizing that there was a mistake.

2. I left the house before anyone noticed and posted about it.

3. I can take being bruced, but I dont like the idea of doing a 100 mile round trip, in the rain, for nothing just because some other FF screwed up

so, pending a ruling by the International Moto-tag Association governing body overturning my reasoning, next up is:

hint, if necessary: find Stingy Lane

'Flagger · 09-04-2012, 04:09 PM

total and complete utter fail of that is good and honest about Tag-o-Rama.

the proper reaction to a mis-tag is to point and laugh at the FF that screwed up .... not reward the current fuck-up and enable future fuck-ups.

take yer post down ya reprobate.

dyrtybyrd · 09-04-2012, 04:45 PM

There is no "next up" as the observatory hasn't been tagged yet. Sorry, but it looks like haste made waste.

bikeridermark · 09-04-2012, 05:25 PM

Looking at a you tube video of Perkins Observatory ( Reaching for the stars, I think ), the front and back of the building do look quite different. I think it's the same one.
The only other observatory I found reference to in Delaware was a 'big ear', listening to outer space.

bikeridermark · 09-04-2012, 05:30 PM

Yep, watched the video again, same building. Foundation and windows are different on front and back.
Guess we need to hear from mchester.

looks like maybe a "bite me" is in order

bikeridermark · 09-04-2012, 06:04 PM

Bite me, sion!

dyrtybyrd · 09-04-2012, 06:04 PM

The "great" tag dispute! First it is, then it isn't....then, perhaps, it is again. What's a tagger to do?

C'mon mchester, we need a definitive answer!! Or, don't you know either?
