Like the set bro. Number 3 is a favorite
and when I saw the travel trailer, the phrase " Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home" came to mind.

Is #11 an old barracks?

I keep track of 2x's expos in the LDB. The guy does lots of trips, and its worth keeping tabs on him.


I have changed my personal exploring ethics code. From now on it will be: "Take only aimed shots, leave only hobo corpses." Copper scrappers, meth heads and homeless beware. The Jonsered cometh among you, bringing fear and dread.

I like the trailer in your last picture partly because it reminds me of the trailer used in the new release of "The Hills Have Eyes". Jeeze that was such a horrible movie...

We must always fear the wicked.
But there is another kind of evil that we must fear the most,
and that is the indifference of good men.

no I think its an old oil field machine shop or may have had something to do with a nearby 1920 refinery but Ive run out of leads on this one

I know you're not going to say where this is, but is it in Texas?

Great find in picture #14! If anyone doesn't know, the rusty contraption next to the La-Z-Boy is an oil heater. You put your waste oil in the bottom and light it up. I've never seen one vented to the outside like that -- the ones I've seen are about that tall but open at the top. Flames occasionally come shooting out the top, great for entertaining the kiddos.

The unit pictured makes me wonder if it would work properly if it couldn't get the full unobstructed chimney effect. I wouldn't trust it -- for fear of carbon monoxide poisoning turning the La-Z-Boy into a Pushin-Up-Dai-Z-Boy.

hey you win the award for correctly identifying the heater

the reason its "vented" to the outside is just outside the window is a deer blind, the vent pipe blew hot air directly into the little blind
