    OK, so I was going to use orange cones to practice backing up, but now, I have been inspired!  Find me the nearest schoolyard!

    @SAM, come on over. My driveway is 75' long, and it's easier backing the T@B up it than it was to back the Silver Shadow Teardrop up it!  Oh, don't go off on either side at the street...3' deep ditch. And don't go off in the grass...the owner gets a bit testy  about yard jobs ;)

    My trial by fire was on an old overgrown cow path road in ND. Half mile in discovered the bridge was out and no place to turn around. It was a long, slow backup job.

    The pink flamingo schtick is so old and over done that I can't believe any of you are still holding on to it -- Fun for awhile -- BORING  now !!!!!!!!

    Don't be sorry, @Homebodyatheart - the bunny ones didn't last long either. I'm sure something else will sneak up soon :giggle:

    Ratkity, and Homebodyatheart, The blue bunnies have the tools, and probably some of the blocks he could have used for the bridge. They also took his pink flamingo skivvies. [Now there's a picture for ya, blue bunnies in pink flamingo skivvies :o !] He was kinda feisty yesterday anyway. I'm wondering if the bunnies didn't eat his left over pineapple upside down cakes too, hence the little attitude! PXL, the only reason we pick on you so much is because we love ya, and would really hate for you to be bored. Ya need to teach the bunnies some tricks, maybe THEY can help with the bridge next time if ya make some more of those cakes for 'em! =)

    True story.

    Port O'Connor is a very small fishing village on the Texas gulf coast.  It's so boring there that the old men sit on stools next to the boat ramp and hold up cards with grades every time someone backs up a trailer on the boat ramp.  Nothing else to do in town.  Kind of like they used to do at the olympics for ice skating competition.  So, you back your trailer and they hold up a card with a grade number from one to ten.  One, being you were horrible and ten being you were passible.  

    Very humiliating if you have to try more than once.

    Talk about pressure....
