and "Rampant Beaver Crossing."
Reminds me of an old joke:
You might be in the middle of nowhere if directions to your house include "turn off the paved road."

Guys, you have no idea how far out it is. No kidding, I even saw a Camel on the way there. I've lived in Oregon since the mid 50s and that's the first time I ever saw a Camel outside of a zoo. No it wasn't a llama or Alpaca we got plenty of those. This was a bona fide Camel, maybe that's how they deliver the mail out there.

Fedoralover,

We even have a few out here in Kansas. I was driving west on 70 and a few miles before the Army base at Ft. Riley, and sure enough, there was a herd (is that what you call a bunch of camels?) of camels. There were camels to the left of me and camels to the right of me. Maybe they were an Oregon breed.

I'm not sure it's a "real" camel though. It only has one hump...does that count? ( c'mon JP..I KNOW theres a joke in there somewhere!!)

The other hump is likely Osama Bin Laden hiding behind the camel.

I sent a camel hair, wait, no horsehair band for you JP. Art will get it first.

Thanks for the Camel pictures Fedoralover and yes they look like the wild herd we have here in Florida.

Only when the beavers are rampantly crossing

Camelus dromedarius

 

[Dave Keith]

Camels

I remember that the two-hump camel is called Bactrian because the two humps make a B.

The one-hump camel is a Dromedary because the one hump makes a D.

My own simple mnemonic device, although the topic of how many humps a camel has seldom comes up in most social circles.

Just wait until they make a home in your lake. You'll wish you had camels instead.

Euphemisms.

This isn't a camel but the hat I will wear today on Christmas from Art Fawcett. One of my favorites for sure.

I spoke to Art and it will be a few days and his website will be back up. He said to tell the lounge members that have been waiting for him go ahead and mail your hats to him.
