    Yep, they can occur on inland waterways also, that is water not debris it's tossing about, very common this time of year along the TX coast. You can send some of that rain down here, I think you guys have had your share.

    Those are called waterspouts, not actually a tornado.

    I made an early run to the beach today to check out the crowd, it was packed as I expected, it was cloudy and pretty breezy, I saw allot of collapsed tents and awnings :LOL: The water was rather angry also this morning. Now this is a Texas size flag, the DuraVee is directly under the...

    TEXAS Those are the state flowers in the foreground, the Texas Bluebonnet. EDIT, of course I am biased but I think the Texas Bluebonnet is the prettiest flower in the world, much more complex than they first appear.;)

    That is interesting, a couple weeks ago I was at an event where a Texas DPS officer gave a talk, he said they do not want you to inform them if you are carrying, he said they just assume everyone is carrying, he said if you inform then the officer has to follow up with an investigation to make...

    IMHO "tooling" around town with an "armed" HMMWV is a bad idea, just my 2 cents worth.

    Well it is Spring Break so it was a little cool with a chance of rain this morning on the beach. And then there was this guy, wish I got a pic of the driver, he matched that old good times van perfectly, grey hair half way down his back and Birkenstocks! When I first saw him he was standing...

    I made a trip in the DuraVee to Texas Humvee's shop in Mico TX Friday to help with some electrical troubleshooting on a M1151A1. I decided as I hit the road at 3:45AM to take the scenic route up Hwy 181 instead of the boring ride up I37, I did think to myself that I would be taking a somewhat...

    We have a front moving through today so I stuck the DuraVee back together (installing A/C) and went to town for lunch, a little 40 mile jog, forgot to take a pic, then I had a buddy ride me over the George West to pick up the scooter I bought for Pam, a 22 Honda Rebel 500 with only 400mi on the...

    Beautiful!!! I have two 96/11s and two K31s (one sport/re barreled in 338 fed) all fine examples of Swiss engineering, one 96/11 is probably the only possession I still have after over 50 years

    Well today looked like the last day for a while that I could take the DuraVee to the beach, as usual I got a pre-dawn ride on the ferry and then breakfast at the best restaurant on the island, 4 eggs, 4 pancakes, steak, 2 sausage patties, two pieces of toast and a large tea in a to-go cup...

    I took a 120 mile jog this morning to Karnes City and back to pick up a Craigs list purchase. I figured 50 deg would be a little uncomfortable in the DuraVee with no doors or back wall so I took the Detroit, seeing as it was veterans day and all. That decision turned out to be a good one as it...

    I was fortunate to get to visit that wall when it was in S TX.

    I looked back and GP has only sold 7 of them that I can find. The Amtech is pretty nice, that is what I have on the "Detroit" and are rather plentiful but as you said that ATTBAR is pretty sweet.

    You have no idea, Harris county stripped the crud out of that truck, took EVERY electrical component and cut every wire doing it, took the front half shafts, all the steering gear components and the sway bar, seat belts, dog house, battery cables, passenger seat,, I mean everything they could...

    You know it is funny, I guess,, EVERYONE told me getting a Heeler was a mistake, she'll tear everything up, too much energy bla bla bla. I only met two people with Heelers, one was Austin (beltfed on fleabay) and they loved them. In only 9mo she is by far the best dog I have ever had, lots of...
