It's two more of those.
Day 73
Oh
June 8th, 2010
I'm walking across America.
That's the idea, at least. I'm walking westward from New York City for nine months or so. If everything goes according to plan, I'll be in Oregon when the clock runs out. If nothing goes according to plan, maybe I'll end up in Peru or Mongolia or Pennsylvania. You can read all about the details of my trip if you're so inclined.

Here's my progress so far:
Anteater on the left, and horse on the right? More cabooses?
Yes, I see them!
Your caption made me laugh!
Really enjoying your journey from across the world – you have a great eye for a photograph.
Thought to be extinct, these apparently docile,mating 19th century threshers may attack if cornered. Caught in the wild by Wild Thinkdom photographer Matt Greene, these are a fine example of the Industrial Revelotion
I believe these are belt driven grain threshers, used in farm harvesting until the evolution of the modern day combine in the mid 20th century
I love those!
Shoot. For a minute I got all excited. But I was lookin’ for a blue one.
They are exhibiting predatory behavior by the way that they are hiding behind those signs and crouched down ready to ambush their prey.
Are you sure they are not in a defensive pattern?
Maybe Matt scared them.
Yes, scott mac, those are belt-driven grain threshers. I saw one in operation a few years ago, at an antique farm festival, in southwestern Minnesota. A steam-powered tractor was powering it. Fine debris was flying everywhere as it threshed. It was quite a sight to see.
Keep up the photos, I like them. O, and keep on going because that is a big activity your doin’.
Given the backdrop, my first thought was that Matt had overshot Oregon and ended up in some run-down area of the former Soviet Union. This looked almost like some shots I’ve seen from the Chernobyl area.
Awesome shot, Matt. You astound me with your good eye.
A magnetic field connected to the one corner cage keeps these prehistoric creatures at bay!
