On the Road Again with Merle

[Old Engineer]

Part 2 continued:

This was one of my favorite displays!

Billy the Kid!

A very cool antique bar! I’d imagine this is where you could find a cowboy after earning a long hard day.

The American Buffalo is a true staple of the West. I’m currently reading Steven Rinella’s, “American Buffalo” and it’s a great book that I highly recommend.

I’d like to thank btb01 for the opportunity of hosting Merle in Los Angeles, it was a great excuse to get out and adventure and I very much enjoyed doing so. I hope everyone enjoyed my posts and it will surely be something I won’t soon forget. Very much looking forward to keeping up with his adventures in Eugene, Oregon next!

WOW and Thank You very much my friend .

Really enjoyed seeing the sites with Merle, good luck when you pop the question!

Thank you very much sir

What a fantastic museum, you've really shown Merle the sights That's amazing, good luck (though I'm sure you don't need it), and be sure to report back

I will most definitely sir. It appears at my attempt to cover my tracks deleting the images from Imgur resulted in it being deleted here! FAIL!

That's a shame

Hyesouljah excellent post with the museum, some really interesting displays there! And best of luck with the proposal! Thank you again for showing Merle around LA and really going above and beyond!

 

[Hyesouljah]

That's a shame

Looks like I fixed it and brought one photo back!

Excellent report Hyesouljah on the Gene Autry museum and Merles travels! I've been by it many times when we use to drive down to the Garment District to buy silk for making wildrags. I've never been though. Perfect timing with all the western pics, I was out chasing cows all day yesterday and on the schedule today and tomorrow too. That slicker next to the buffalo coat is still being made. I have one. Mostly I use it for sacking out colts. I always say by the time ya get all them buttons buttoned up its stopped raining around here. They are colloquially know as a Fish or a Fishskin. For your buffalo interest, couple three things I made lately from a buffalo hide. All three are from the same hide and for the same customer:

Excellent review and am enjoying Merele's travels.

Merle looks like he's having a great time.

Merle Arrived yesterday. His 2015 cousin welcomed him, though we decided to let Merle rest while 2015 and I handled the plumbing tasks last night.

Today the 2015 is starting its vacation while Merle hangs out with me at the lab. Tomorrow Merle and I will be heading out into the field (but it is for monitoring, so the chances of actually seeing some interesting archaeology is not particularly high).

Glad to see Merle again! It looks like I need to turn on the notifications for this thread again because I missed this post. Looking forward to following your adventures

I’m happy to see Merle made it (back) to Oregon, and looking forward to seeing what he gets up to!

Good to see that Merle arrived for his next adventure! Tell him I said hi!

Merle got to come to work with me today. We didn't find a lot of archaeology, though I did spot a bottle base from the 1800s. Merle got a picture:

We took a little walk through Old Bandon Oregon early this morning:

And then on the way home we spotted some elk:

Looks like a great place for walking around. I may have to visit it some day.

Great photos! That boardwalk looks like an interesting place.

abbydaddy Great photos, Daddy. I'd like to visit Oregon, but they don't allow people from California to enter the state.

 

[abbydaddy]

Sorry for the lack of Merle photos everyone, I've been a little under the weather (and so were my wife and kids), but we are all feeling better). I'll get some more Merle photos as soon as I can.

Very cool. If you need Merle to stop in Florida, I can be added to the list.
