Interesting Roof on TT

[SpencerPJ]

While out for a morning ride on my motorcycle in rural southern Indiana, I came across this. I drove past and just had to turn back for a picture. The guy caught me taking a pic (awkward, but I sold it as admiration of his craftsmanship) but he was a super nice guy. He sure was proud that it no longer leaked. I wished him safe travels, left, and thought yikes.

I wonder how well it tows?

 

[SpencerPJ]

I couldn’t imagine

 

[Lou Schneider]

I hope I'm not behind him when he hits a bump that dislodges those cinderblocks.

 

[Tulecreeper]

I can't imagine that being legal.

 

[jymbee]

I don't see a license plate. Perhaps permanent non-moving resident?

That sign says Oil change Lube filter???

I suspect a local purchase as well. It was off a 2 lane hwy, the driveway and area was a cutout in a hillside, there were other signs posted as well, political and 2nd amendment type. This trailer certainly came down the hwy, this picture was just entering the property. I will spy the area out again next week sometime.

I will spy the area out again next week sometime.

I'll be interested to see your next report.

Yeah, this can't be a "traveling" RV. It is probably being towed to a permanent site, where it will be parked.

Update: upon further investigation, I would say the trailer with roof was leaving that spot. I drove a few miles each way and didn't see any bricks or remnants along the roadside. I took a couple more pics, looks like it was in the upper left area, possibly using that water container? This is a garage in the middle, and a mobile home trailer is off to the right. As I was there, I saw the sign in lower left of second picture and felt I probably should limit my pictures. edit: Last pic is a snapshot from google maps

I spot a bright green Harbor Freight floor jack under the left rear in the first pic. Maybe just stopped in for tire service? Maybe those are made out of cinder blocks or wood, too.

Using the cinderblocks as a reference, this thing is about 16' to the peak of the roof. If the wind at speed doesn't get it, the first bridge probably would.

Can you say,

 

[Tulecreeper]

Can you say,

They call me "Q-Tip".

"AZ - 83 Miles SW of the Geographical Center"
Center of what? AZ perhaps?

 

[Tulecreeper]

"AZ - 83 Miles SW of the Geographical Center"
Center of what? AZ perhaps?

Yes Larry, that's what it says.

 

[Larry N.]

Yes Larry, that's what it says.

Perhaps, but the only specific geographical centers I had come across were of the lower 48 and of the continental U.S. Had it read:

"83 Miles SW of the Geographical Center of AZ"

there would be no ambiguity. Of course I was probably influenced by the fact that when I was a kid our family often visited my grandad who lived on a farm just a handful of miles from what was the the Geographical Center of the U.S. in north central Kansas, even with a family reunion partly held at the monument and park there.

So thanks for the clarification.

We have a saying for something like that. Rednecking too close to the sun
