Where do YOU live?

rockyridgefarm · May 26, 2004

I was giving the vet directions to my house, while working on my tractor. When I got to my road's number (country roads are all numbered in OK) I got real confused. 4310? No thats my tractor... Hey it IS 4310... /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif I thoght it was bad enough I live in Green Country...

Mine is not quite as bad, but still close. My road is 1400 and my tractor is 1440. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

I live on 675, right off 632.

My tractor is a 4710, my truck is a 350, my convertible is a 1500.

I guess I lose /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Mike - It just sounds all so right...

Unfortunately I live on a road called Witter Rd... All I ever thought of when I moved there was the line from the old Clint Eastwood movie Any Which Way But Loose "D'ems Witters... Black Witters". Now the coincidence with that is I believe I smashed a Black Widow spider out by the deck a week or so back... spooky.... /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

You're way off track. Green county is north of us here in Albemarle county, Va.

My property # is 420. Should I get a 4210 with 420 loader?

7890 on SR141

Not in the LEAST! I was just so confused when I was giving out directions that is surprised me!

( country roads are all numbered in OK )

Yeah, and in Texas, too, in most cases. Then you have to know whether it's NE, NW, SE, or SW /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif. I used to live at 18872 Northwest County Road 3360, which makes it a long address to write out. However, mail was frequently addressed "18872 NW CR 3360" so some came addressed to "18872 NW Circle 3360". /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif But at least in a little town, it really didn't matter whether it had an address or not. If it just had a name on it, the postman knew everyone and where they lived. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Well 4310 is actually a very important number, it tells how far I live from Texas!!! (431 miles..) Is that TOO close?

Bird · Jun 1, 2004

( Is that TOO close? )

Just depends, I guess, Mike. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif You know I'm a native of Carter County, OK, myself; only lived in Texas since 1956. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

So, like, in 10 years or so you get to be a Texican?!!

Bird · Jun 1, 2004

I always figured I could claim to be a Texican since my old granddaddy was a native Texan (Bowie) before his family moved to Indian Territory when he was 5 years old. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

My address on Township Road 72 doesn't work at all with my tractors - NH 1920 and JD GT 245 - but I'm a firefighter assigned to Ladder 72, working out of Station 72. Good enough for me...

rockyridgefarm · Jun 1, 2004

I remember watching that old show Emergency! so know you don't have to work much, all the dispatches go to Station 51... /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

My property is on OLD US 30 which is now named as the center line road for my township. If it did bear a number it would be 00. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

A more interesting thing about the road on which I'm located is that it was a part of the original Lincoln Highway here. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

For those of you who don't know, the Lincoln Highway was America's first transcontinental highway for automobiles. Kind of a neat little bit of history right at the end of my drive here. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif
