I was headed home this afternoon from Minden and was about 15 minutes south of Shreveport when I noticed something in the rearview mirror. I kept trying to figure out what it was and finally it turned in the air and I realized it was the space shuttle Endeavor on the top of its 747 returning to Florida. It had stopped in Barksdale. That was impressive. Almost as impressive as all the snow piled up on the side of I-49 south of Alexandria at 3:30 in the afternoon!

sweet... where's the pic??

me
 
Holy crap!

ok first off im really sorry that i dont have any pics but yesterday at B&M there was and still is an fj100? (like colicious) that had managed to hit a pipe sticking out of the ground with just the driver rear tire. when this happened, im guessing he was hauling a$$, he bent the ever living CRAP out of the rim and even managed to bend the rear axle. he also bent the panard bar and shifted the entire rear end to the passanger side. im pretty sure the guy said it is fully locked, it has 35's, and a snorkel, but the funny part is that he has ostrich interior in it hahaha! i will get pictures because ill be goin tomorrow or saturday.

Awesome. Like Scott said, we need pics.




Well I am sure we were all surprised today. It snowed until about 11:00 am over here. At one point it was almost a white out. Crazy. My neighbor has been living next door and he hasn't seen anything like this over here in 38 years. I guess global warming is for real.

Close to a white out.

When the kids got home they had a BALL. Man just watching the kids play in their first snow brought back memories.

Thats awesome :cheers: we didn't get near that much and by the time I go to the office the rain washed most away :frown: Oh well some is better than none and it was a neat experience for the kids to wake up and see that.
 
Marty that is one of the coolest things i have ever seen. When I was stationed in TX we had a very long runway so the 747 with the shuttle on top would come in every now and then to re fuel. It makes you wonder how and the hell can that thing fly.nYou are right pictures doesn't do it justice.

It looked like it just hung in the air, it was so massive.

I've seen the shuttle reenter the atmosphere over Lafayette twice which is awesome in it's own right. This just added to my interest in space exploration.
