We export logs and wood chips. Just 4 places to dock at.... One may have gone out of business.... Not sure, but something seems different driving by their log yard.

From a heyday in the 1960's we had numerous ships per day going in and out. These days.... 10 per month would be a wet dream.

But Oregon is probably larger than the whole of NZ so you are allowed to have more trees to export

How many ports are there? We are the one of two deep draft ports in the state. The next nearest are San Francisco or Seattle, hundreds of miles either direction.

Tauranga is in the middle of the North Island, been in the news lately White Island
Nelson is on the top of the South Island. There would be other ports which also send of logs around NZ

First plane was recently discovered in a garage 20 miles away, completely original. Second plane, a P-51, was just purchased by Tom Cruise for $5mil.

That your hair he got?

This is all I have.
Helping a friend who's furnace ain't working. He's 80 and I'm not. The furnace is at the far end of the house, entering via a hatch in the garage.
Discovered the furnace breaker switch was directly below a dripping roof vent. Flipping the breaker off and on a dozen times resolved the problem.... But it happened a second time.
Took some photos so I could identify the right replacement.
In addition, the intake and exit plenums lost their duct tape, so intake air comes from the rafters and the hot air blows into the same place....... His rafters are dry.

Enjoy!

Has anyone seen the P-51 Mustang plane. When in the Navy I parked a couple that were in our air shows. Them babies can haul ass let me tell you and a pleasure listening to them run.

 

[highup]

Is there another plane that has a long nose like the mustang? We has one at an air show here once. I was thinking the wings had a different look where the connect to the fuselage.... Kind of a swoop or curve instead of being straight.
