  4. It's the real thing.
    Fun Facts About The London Bridge
    [​IMG]The London Bridge, 2014
    Did you know?

    [​IMG]

    • Kaboom! The vintage lamps on the bridge are made from the melted-down cannons of Napoleon Bonaparte's army.
    • The London Bridge is rumored to be haunted. For years, visitors have claimed sightings of a British police bobby patrolling the bridge and a woman in black roaming the night.
    • The inside of the bridge is hollow because it was rebuilt in order to accommodate auto traffic. During the London Bridge's reassembly, a steel framework was faced in granite, rather than using solid granite blocks, which reduced its weight from 130,000 tons to 30,000 tons while strengthening the structure. The London Bridge is NOT falling down!
    • The London Bridge is a movie star! It's been featured in such horror films as "Bridge Across Time, aka Terror on the London Bridge" (1985) and "Day of the Wolves" (1971).
    [​IMG]

    • When dismantled in London, England, each stone of the London Bridge was numbered for reassembly in Lake Havasu City. The bridge was shipped overseas to the Port of Long Beach, California and then transported overland to Lake Havasu City, where reassembly began in 1968. If you look carefully, you can see the numbering on many of the stones.
    • Can you say guano? The London Bridge is home to hundreds of bats, which inhabit the nooks and crannies of its hollow interior.
    [​IMG]

    • Also calling the London Bridge home are thousands of swallows who, on the underside of the bridge, have built their nests out of mud pellets gathered from the shoreline of the Bridgewater Channel.
    • The London Bridge has gone green! The white-yellow tints of the recently installed LED lights that line the bridge lend a vintage look, similar to the original gaslights, and the energy saving bulbs make the bridge environmentally efficient.
    • The London Bridge is known as the world's largest antique, and with the opening of the bridge in October 1971, Lake Havasu City was permanently put on the map as a world-famous attraction.
    • As the second-largest tourist attraction in Arizona, topped only by the Grand Canyon, the London Bridge continues to draw tens of thousands of sightseers to Lake Havasu City annually.
    • [​IMG]A top new sneaker release for 2018, the Concepts x New Balance Made in U.K. 991.5 "Lake Havasu" athletic shoe was inspired by the story of the London Bridge's relocation to Lake Havasu City.

  7. Not the London bridge that was falling down, that bridge was burnt in the first fire of London and was the reason the fire spread across the river!

    Wilted and unhappy. Stretched more then I like but it is what it is.

    I'll scrap the 2 full duds.
    Clones looked good. A few could transition from the cloner.

    The hanging harvested plant got to dry (expected) and is in a sealed bucket overnight and I'll see just how dry it got. Still had some squish a bit deeper in.

    The next pair of early flowered plants are done and can come down anytime now.

    Got sidetracked into watering the yard and didn't snap more pictures.

  15. Best to keep it simple working with a bunch of stoners.
    The meet N greet at Reds went off well enough.
    The BBQ at Sit's
    The BBQ's at Paul's before the bloody Challis cup.

    The fishing trip actually wasn't that bad. I'd been on way worse half and full day puke fest boats. At least the Paul trip was a 1/4 filled boat and not the packed shoulder to shoulder ones I've done. Was easy to get to the bait tank and plenty of fresh wiggling bait.

    We need to talk brother Spin into hosting another as he the most central to us. He provides the hot grill and we can all bring a dish and our meat. AKA pot luck style. Keep costs down for the host.

    I'd say BYOC but there has never been a shortage of things to toke, smoke, vape, eat..
    I usually bring a mobile pharmacy myself and could cover everybody just with what resides in the car trunk in capsules and Kief.
