I had so much fun building my last scene that I decided to do something along the same lines. I may try and connect this one to the last one for some hardcore redneck apocalypse action!

New York, NY / July 3, 2009
It looks rough but throws a signal out well enough. I'm hoping to get some time to work DX this summer.

Found this accidental "creation" on the side of the road that I take to my daughters cheer practice. The county is reworking the drainage in the area and this is the staging area for all of the piping being used. It looked rather curious while traveling by it so the next day I took my camera and stopped for a few minutes to see if anything looked interesting enough to capture.
I still have a few more ideas and a few more views to work on, but for the moment I'm happy with these posted today.
Fiberglass, plywood, lumber, styrofoam, formica and there's gotta be duct tape in there somewhere ... just your regular upgrade from base-level school bus to 'hippie-mobile'. We would love to have seen inside!

June 22, 1996. A dozen members of a self-anointed and unwelcome KKK group came to Ann Arbor to hold a thumb-in-your-eye rally at City Hall. A protest group, the National Women's Rights Organizations Coalition (NWROC) formed to oppose them. After the rage had been mounting for awhile, this simpleminded redneck wandered up, wearing a Confederate-flag T-shirt and drinking a bottle of Lipton tea. The crowd tore off after him, he fell, and the mob pounced, striking for blood. Keshia Thomas, horrified, threw herself over him to stave off the angry blows. Moments earlier, Thomas, 18, had been in the NWROC group, shouting at the KKK. It was a heroic and passionate moment in a crazy afternoon, well captured in these photographs.
In a story in People Magazine, Thomas was quoted as saying, "You don't beat a man up because he doesn't believe the same things you do. He's still somebody's child."
The guy never dropped his tea bottle . . . .
(He was later identified as one Albert McKeel, Jr.)

Of course, we have plenty rednecks in Norway, most of them benign and fun loving. As far as I know politics are not involved - Finnskog Norway
The word over:
Redneck is a derogatory slang term used in reference to poor, uneducated white farmers, especially from the southern United States. It is similar in meaning to cracker (especially regarding Georgia and Florida), hillbilly (especially regarding Appalachia and the Ozarks), and white trash (but without the last term's suggestions of immorality).
In recent decades, the term has expanded its meaning to refer to bigoted, loutish reactionaries who are opposed to modern ways, and has often been used to attack white Southern conservatives. The term is used broadly to degrade working class and rural whites that are perceived by urban progressives to be insufficiently liberal. At the same time, some Southern whites have reclaimed the word, using it with pride and defiance as a self-identifier.
Soooo, we have been invited to a "western-themed" wedding. Everyone is encouraged to wear jeans and cowboy boots. Sooooo, I came up with these for part of our wedding gift to the happy couple! It took about 2 hours to cut, sort out and glue the beads to the jars and stems. They include silver cowboy hats and boots with red embellishes, Mr & Mrs. bedazzelers and jute string bows. They are the first ones I made so was thoroughly happy with them. Guess what else will be going in the box?
Another hobby for me....I bought 12 jars!!
