That would be ideal, but any kind of diner is OK.

No way! I think the trailer-style diner is excellent!

I do too. In fact I've been looking at Diner history sites all night. That's how I just found Vinyl. How's the weather in Cincy?

Sun is out today and predicted to be out tomorrow as well. It's about 35 degrees right now and I'm suiting up to scoot. There are a few Tags we're going after today. Tomorrow we are riding up to Dayton for a group ride (celebrating my 53rd birthday!) and seeing what the weather brings for scootercincinnati.com 1st Annual Polar Bear Ride. It's looking rainy right now so maybe have to push that one to next Sunday.

So I'm off trailer hunting!

Angie

I'm back and we actually found two: 1st one is Vinyl, Syd!

and the world famous Ollie's Trolley. Mr. Smith (Ollie) was actually here and allowed a photo op. Sweet!

Next tag: Your scooter at a Brewery Not a bar, not a distillery but an actual brewery. Have fun!

Helmets off to you BoneGirl. And nice of you to keep the tag food related!

Both! Here's Brooklyn Brewery -

And here's to all the Modern Buddy folks, with wishes for a bright and happy new year -

Whoops. Here's the new tag.
A vintage clothing store.
Not a thrift shop.

Vintage clothing. Can I just take a picture of my scoot in front of my closet?

Sorry, but after two weeks forced vacation catching up at work is disrupting my life. Damn work.

Ai yi yi! I'm almost

to be a Buddy person! Or at least a Buddy tag player. Since I posted the last tag here, there have been 6 (count 'em - six) completed tags on ScooterDiva and a 7th tag posted.
Not everybody lives in a cold clime on this forum. Wassamattawidju?

Syd · Post by **Syd** » Mon Jan 12, 2009 12:55 am

Do Buffalo Exchange clothes count as Vintage even if the sign doesn't say so? If it does:

And keeping the Vintage theme alive how about vintage music?

etak · Post by **etak** » Sat Jan 24, 2009 12:12 am

This is starting to feel like a 2 person game!

Here's a vintage (downright decrepit) music store:

Maybe this new tag will be easier -
home under construction

Syd · Post by **Syd** » Sat Jan 24, 2009 3:26 am

Nice store. Think they'd have an obscure Root Boy Slim album?

And homes under construction? I think lots of Arizonans can do that (hint, nudge, Becktastic, HowardR, Glen and the rest) besides me. At least I hope so.

Let me know which one you're looking for - you never know.

Dog Secrets. I shoulda bought it 25 years ago, but I was broke. Been looking for it off and on ever since. Probably won't even like it now, Ha!

Boy, did I mis-speak:

And homes under construction? I think lots of Arizonans can do that

Since the real estate market crashed, I figured I could ride out a bit and easily find hundreds of half-built shells of houses. Nuh Uh. It looks like the big builders finished the houses they had going, then just left neatly graded, but otherwise untouched lots in their massive developments. I rode around for a couple hours just to find this:

Or maybe I just didn't go out far enough.

And then, since it's Sunday, I went to church - or by one anyway:

etak · Post by **etak** » Wed Jan 28, 2009 2:41 am

I'm sorta embarrassed to post this because there are so many beautiful churches in NYC, but this was the most convenient one and I was COLD!! and the game must go on . . .

How about a comic book / trading card store?

Syd · Post by **Syd** » Wed Jan 28, 2009 4:22 am

Hello....?

Is anyone there...(besides me, etak and BoneGirl)?

Hello...?

It's like this on a lot of scooter sites right now...must be the weather. Midwest is getting hit with a lot of snow and ice today and the next few days. No chance of me getting your tag so it's time for some of the southerners to get it on!!!

ageekgirl · Post by **ageekgirl** » Wed Jan 28, 2009 3:26 pm

Haven't had much of a chance to get out on the scooter. And I spent the weekend taking a motorcycle safety class, so I wasn't about to get on a scooter afterwards I was so wrung out. Its a lovely rainy day today. I might be able to get this on Friday or Saturday, but others may get it first. We'll see.

Cheshire · Post by **Cheshire** » Wed Jan 28, 2009 4:19 pm

Just got my 1st maintenance and found my camera.
Gimme a couple hours.

Cheshire · Post by **Cheshire** » Thu Jan 29, 2009 11:42 pm

Best comic shop in town.

and...aww, bugger. I was so excited to take the first pic of my Púca I forgot the followup tag. If no one beats me to it, I'll have one tomorrow...it's dark outside now.

Ha,Ha,Ha! And trust me, I'm laughing *with* you.

Hey, at least I'm someone new to this game!

Cheshire · Post by **Cheshire** » Sat Jan 31, 2009 4:01 am

Okay...next: the local quirky hangout.

Syd · Post by **Syd** » Sat Jan 31, 2009 7:14 am

...the local quirky hangout.

Hmm, quirky...

KRUSTYburger · Post by **KRUSTYburger** » Sat Jan 31, 2009 6:52 pm

Well, I hope this is quirky enough for you... If walls covered with dollar bills and animal heads,
and irish folk music you can hear from 3 blocks away isn't quirky, I don't know what is.
Also they have boss nachos.

So for the next one, try to find a funny sign that is selling something weird or has something
to do with corn. If you have a really funny one that isn't selling anything and doesn't involve
corn, you can use it anyway as long as its good.

Nice flare from the mirror. Plan or happy accident?

KRUSTYburger · Post by **KRUSTYburger** » Sun Feb 01, 2009 11:29 pm

It was an accident... I actually didn't even notice it til I transferred it from my camera to the laptop and I was like what the heck is that?!

Cheshire · Post by **Cheshire** » Tue Feb 03, 2009 1:17 pm

Been looking for corn-related signs with no luck.

The search continues....

KRUSTYburger · Post by **KRUSTYburger** » Tue Feb 03, 2009 4:05 pm

It can be anything weird that you normally wouldn't see on a for sale sign, or just any funny sign. Corn is optional.

etak · Post by **etak** » Tue Feb 03, 2009 10:14 pm

snowbound

etak · Post by **etak** » Fri Feb 06, 2009 11:29 am

I may have a lead . . .

and the weather's getting better!

etak · Post by **etak** » Sat Feb 07, 2009 12:24 am

OK, this is the best I can do.

One of my pet peeves is when other people's Petes piss on my property!

This is probably pretty easy. A botanical garden (or arboretum)

haha, that's a good one, etak. Sorry about the weird tag, I was in a hurry and I wasn't finding anything interesting...
Botanical gardens should be cool, unfortunately our only one is in the Zoo, and I don't think I could bring the Bud in there.
Maybe I could find one in a neighboring city? ROAD TRIP!

etak · Post by **etak** » Sat Feb 07, 2009 2:35 pm

No, Krusty, it was a good one - just hard!!

I feel . . . so alone . . .

Syd · Post by **Syd** » Sat Feb 14, 2009 5:01 am

Phebruary in Phoenix. Prime visitor time, by god. I have a great idea, and a logical follow-up; I just need to find some free time.

Syd · Post by **Syd** » Thu Feb 19, 2009 3:46 am

[Edit 1]
This Edit can server two purposes.

1. Bump
2. Replace the crappy picture I posted earlier.

So here's a proper Botanical Gardens picture. And over the headset you can see the sculpture in the first posting (now removed).

[/Edit 1]

And since I was in the neighborhood, I went to the Zoo. You should too!

[Edit 2]
And here is a slightly better version of what I was looking for a couple weeks ago.

Now get out to the Zoo!

Ok, here's the Zoo...

I can't remember, (and am too lazy to go through them all right now.) but have we had "Airplane" yet?
