Mahnarch HQ specializes in rooftop turrets and sniper point construction.

I've got rail guns at the quarters for extra protection.
Hey, where's the one with the sled I seem to have inherited?

A beautiful scenic view from your roof Mahnarch. Demona Firebrand I like the roof picture.
The ground is very flat for quite some distance I see. I like that a lot.

I like Mahnarch HQ. I don't mind standing on roofs as long as I'm not too close to the edge.
I tore my bad section of roof off but I ran out of daylight Saturday and Sunday it rained just long enough so I'll work on it day by day this week to finish it. I have plastic covering it right now.

Yeah. The land elevation doesn't change much from mile to mile.
About the biggest hills we get are from large boulders trying to breech the surface during the frost season or mole hills.
My back yard has a hill......where my septic tank is located...
As you can see, I live on a dirt road.
The paved road you see was asphalted about 3 years ago and is starting to become a main thoroughfare into town - which I don't really appreciate, much.
It used to be so quiet.
If you look closely behind the pic with Demona (to the left) you'll see a pair of donkeys.
One of those donkeys ended up grazing in my front yard a few years ago.

Demona you stand proudly like the Statue of Liberty. There's a 4 way intersection in some very rural plains. Mahnarch, do you want to rent me that house trailer? I could use a place to stay during a great lakes road trip.

Hmm....we may be able to work something out.
That trailer hasn't moved in quite a few years.
It actually belongs to my sole neighbor but, we're on a "if you need to use anything, just ask" deal.
....I usually borrow things from him....
(He's in his 70s and has every known tool/machine known to man. He is my God.)
He used to install telephone poles for the power company.
...Hmmm....'Telephone poles.....Power Company..'
"Power Poles."

If he has more tools than My Dad I might have a very jealous Father.
Mahnarch you might like this term. My Dad and Dan say this a lot. If they order take out lunch andeat in they open a drawer on their tool box, set their food on the drawer and say they're "having lunch at the Snap-on Cafe."

Snap-On Cafe. I like that.
I'll have to use the MAC Cafe, though.
5 miles.
Zeeland High is 4.5 miles out from me on the outskirts of town.
I can see the football field from here and a little further.

Maybe one of these days I'll eventually be able to meet at least a couple of the members in person. Phil is almost definitely the closest due to neighboring states, and Mahnarch is a pilot; although a flight all the way out here would probably be pretty expensive...eh who knows.

So I might be wrong but hasn't the road going east and west always been dirt and the road going north and south always been asphalt or concrete.
I could be wrong.
Why did you make that nice lady climb to your roof? and I do like the solar panel you got there very nice addition.

The East-West road is and was always dirt.
The North-South was asphalt but, most times you couldn't really tell.
It'd gone downhill pretty fast since you lived here.
They re-paved it a couple years ago because they started building more subdivisions in Zeeland and people are starting to use it, more often.
Did you know they snuck a subdivision in down my street - about a mile to the West?
On Jack's old land.
And....Nice Lady?! She was mean to me the second she pulled in the driveway!
Ha! Not really.
I tell you what, climbing up was hard but, getting down was pretty easy. We just jumped off.
Demona did a double flip and landed in full form. Not even a stumble.
I landed in the bushes.....
I got your voice mail, today.
Sorry I didn't take the call. I was with a customer. Pressing flesh. Giving hats/pens/barrels of pretzels/sticky note pads...etc. away.

Hey, cool you had a chance to get together.  Mahnarch, that countryside looks nice. Hey Jersey, I will be moving closer to where you are, to Washington D.C. this summer. |

You have a great view where you live, Mahnarch. It's also cool that you and Demona met and hung out. I've never personally met anyone I've chatted with online.
