A-B-C Towns Pic Game. Round 2
Alright, there's been enough discussion in the previous thread so I thought I'd start a new one.
Here's the Rules (as taken from the previous thread) 1. Must be a picture of the city limit sign. 2. Each letter is open till the next has been posted. On your mark. Get Set. GO!!

It was dark when I got to Climax. Not unusual.

OK FOLKS DO WE HAVE A "C"? IF NOT, GIMME A "D" I should ride down to Corrigan and swing back by Damascus.

Re: A-B-C Towns Pic Game. Round 2
I just had to dive in. Went down the road a piece and got a "C" while it was still open. Here's Corrigan, Polk County:
![]() Then picked up a "D" in the little community of Damascus, Polk County: ![]() Damascus is on a really fine little road that I highly recommend to anyone, FM1987. Loops east from US 59, on the north end of Corrigan and joins back into 59 just south of the Neches River.

Re: A-B-C Towns Pic Game. Round 2
That's my 2001 Honda XR650L with a Tupperware fuel tank and the remains of a Spitfire windshield. That shot from behind really gives it a different look when you can't see the front fender!

Re: A-B-C Towns Pic Game. Round 2
ok, I thought I remembered you having a XR, but it didn't look like it to me from those pics. the color almost looks orange, so I was half thinking older KTM
I'm really wanting a DS lately...

Re: A-B-C Towns Pic Game. Round 2
Those two pics were made with a camera one of my daughters gave me that is actually on a key chain. It's bare-bones picture taking, doesn't have a little screen on it or anything. Just aim in what you hope is the right direction and fire away. Always take three times as many pics as you need because at least 66% will not contain the object you wish to capture! Color accuracy is not one of its strong points, either:

Re: A-B-C Towns Pic Game. Round 2
knowing the size of the Gazetter, thats a TINY camera!
Small is always nice. I need to acquire a nice digital camera. For the time being I'm borrowing mom's or my friends.

Re: A-B-C Towns Pic Game. Round 2
I captured an "H" on my way home (The long way) this afternoon.
I figured that someone would have surely posted a "G" by now. WRONG! We're still waiting on a "G"
