Wagon in Boyd MT
« on: March 21, 2011, 11:03:04 AM »
I went out to Cooney Reservoir to explore and fish, anymore when I'm driving, especially through ranch areas, I look at all the old cars to see if there are any Eagles around.  I didn't see this on the way in it was hidden by a tree, and my wife noticed it on the way back (she thinks Eagles are "silly cars" so kudos to her for spotting one).  Looks to be in sort of rough shape, but still good to see it isn't totally rusted out.  I need to stop the next time I go that way and talk to the owner.

That one doesn't look too bad.  I've certainly seen worse.

Speaking of Eagles in Montana...

Back in the summer of 1992, my family took a road trip "down south" to Montana.  I remember when we were on the highway, we passed by a small (and I mean small, blink and you miss it) town called Cohagen.  There weren't many vehicles to be seen, but I distinctly remember seeing an Eagle.  A dark colored wagon as I recall.

I would have taken out my cell phone and snapped a picture, if I had access to such technology at the time...  :P

Well you'd have better access to that technology if you'd stop leaving your phone on the roof as you drive off....

Oh, you did NOT just go there...  :P

You do realize that our paths will cross again at some point... so don't be thinkin' you can make your smarty pants remarks without consequence.  >:D

lol Sorry, it's really just friendly banter, though it's hard to tell over the internet. :P

Well I was just using sarcasm, but the sarcasm font didn't show up.  I tried to make it evident by adding "infant" :D
