Bandit is down for a starter clutch or I would have already gotten this. Hopefully I can get it next week.

Grabbed

All found within a little 125 mile scoot this morning.



Smoke stacks


Red house




Percussion Store. Looks like an apartment building, but I assure you they sell drums here. Probably why all the other neighbors moved out.

Light horse


Lucky #13


Rural Intersection

I grabbed all six in case the house wasn't red enough or the horse area wasn't fieldy enough

New list:

I am new to this thread and haven't gone through every page, so I apologize for any repeats and bear with me on the new list, not sure if it is too specific or too easy.

I thought the theme idea was cool and for some reason 80s movies were in my head as I was zipping down the roads this morning....so how about a John Hughes theme.

1) Sixteen Candles: A sign for a party, a party supply store or a sign with a cake on it.

2) Breakfast Club: Your favorite greasy spoon diner/cafe.

3) Weird Science: A research center, laboratory, nature center or something similar.

4) Pretty in Pink: A pink vehicle or structure of any kind.

5) The Great Outdoors: Just a beautiful place where you would wanna throw your kickstand down and have a picnic or take a nap.

*Wild Card*
Ferris Bueller's Day Off: Anything you could reasonably associate with this movie. Large glass walls, red sports car, graduation....

I absolutely love this tag game concept. If you take a peek at my license plates, that term actually came from a fellow ADV rider who came up with it to refer to when I get really excited about something. The combination of riding around, constantly scanning the area and hunting for the tag items, the cloudless sky and almost 90 degree weather today...well....it was definitely Zorgasmic

Excellent! Welcome to the game. This is one of my favorite tag games.

The house wasn't my favorite shade of red, but that sure was a fieldy field!!!

It's a great list and don't recall any of them being used before. Wouldn't matter all that much anyway. It's just a good excuse to go ride.

90 in Wisconsin????? I thought it was hot here.

Movie theme grab

1) Sixteen Candles: A sign for a party, a party supply store or a sign with a cake on it.



2) Breakfast Club: Your favorite greasy spoon diner/cafe.



3) Weird Science: A research center, laboratory, nature center or something similar.



4) Pretty in Pink: A pink vehicle or structure of any kind.



5) The Great Outdoors: Just a beautiful place where you would wanna throw your kickstand down and have a picnic or take a nap.
I like watching planes take off and land. I've got a bunch of spots around to do that. This is one of them.



New list shortly.

Some sit for a while, some go quick. Seems to me, a while back two or three went in a single day.

That place certainly meets the "greasy" criteria.

New list

I was a big Kurt Vonnegut fan back in college (a while back) as I suspect a lot of folks were at the time. Theme for this list is Vonnegut books. I've been trying to keep the lists out of the city limits, but this one may not meet that entirely.

So it goes.

1) Player Piano - get a pic of a piano/organ/keyboard retailer

2) The Sirens of Titan - a parking lot full of police cars

3) Slaughterhouse-Five - a butcher or custom meat shop

4) Breakfast of Champions - a place known primarily for serving breakfast. In the US, IHOP, Waffle House, etc.

5) Jailbird - a jail or prison


and a wildcard pick in case any of the above are out of reach for you:

W) Hocus Pocus - a magic/magician's supply shop

Go figure, could grab all of them in less than an hour, but the bike is down for a starter clutch! TO add insult to injury, on of my RC plane radios (controls 5 different bird) took a dump this evening and needs to go in for repair.

Bump start the bike and leave it running till you get home!

That bites on the required repairs putting a crimp in your recreational activities.
