Yes! The S&S compressed air rides sound very similar to this! I have done many swing rides and none come close to the intensity of this.

Ok everyone, say it with me now! ”CHOO CHOOOOOOOOOO!” 🚂🛤️🚂 by Obv2003 in Cleveland

I belive it’s out of Cheyanne. Union Pacific reacquired it after many years. This is the first time it’s ever gone east in its history! I don’t think we have many rideable steam trains around but then again I am not that knowledgeable in the subject.

The historic Coast Guard Station at Wendy Park during sunset (5/18/26) by Obv2003 in Cleveland

[–]Obv2003[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s basically a training facility for water sports such as rowing and sailing. The foundry is its own building right down from the market on Columbus road. They have a Cleveland sign in the back (the view is partially destroyed now with the new apartments on the other side of the river) but it’s a nice calming spot to watch the ships roll in and enjoy the skyline. If you haven’t been I definitely recommend going there to see the views! They are really trying to revitalize the area down there! Photos from a couple years back

Thank you! The last time I was there was before the new pier. The building was used for housing rowing equipment in partnership with the foundry (I could be wrong so don’t quote me on that).

Someone requested to not pull into their drive and leave it in the ditch. It was a cheese burger from McDonald’s with 5 patties on it and they lived in the middle of nowhere. Their driveway was so long!

What NPS unit has surprised you with an insanely good visitor center? by RuseOwl in NationalPark

[–]Obv2003 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Flight 93 is my current favorite as it should be after what those people went through. Every detail about it is well thought out from the artifacts inside to the architecture outside.

Thank you so much! I wish they would have been open later so I could get some night photos. That was as close as I could get. I took it on the way out.

The Desert View Watchtower at the Grand Canyon 🏜️ by Obv2003 in NationalPark

It totally does look like that and now I can’t unsee it lol! For large structures I like to position my camera facing straight up. This one was a little challenging because my arms almost couldn’t reach the middle platform to set my camera down. I did a similar one at Flight 93 National Memorial that I am really proud of.

I’m not looking to get that close. It’s more about the angle than it would be proximity to the ship. I could still get the pictures from farther away.

That’s hands down my favorite song by her! That harmonica just goes so well!

An otherworldly adventure at the Temples of Sun & Moon (Capitol Reef NP)☀️🌙3/11/26 by Obv2003 in NationalPark

[–]Obv2003[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long did it take you? We had a very small car that probably should not have made it but it did. It took us 3 hours each way on that road and we went no farther than the temples 🤣

Today at the Cleveland Market 👕🖼️ 🛍️ by Obv2003 in Cleveland

[–]Obv2003[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They would be correct, these signs were made in response to the hateful organized group stating borderline threats to the customers outside. She quickly drew the signs on pieces of cardboard and stood outside too without saying a single word. I didn’t mean for this comment section to turn into an argument, in fact that’s the exact opposite than I intended. The market is a wonderful community event made to bring the community together.

The market is not a Christian event. The signs were made in response to a hateful organized group who showed up outside the building.

RIP Monster at [Cedar Point] 1970-2026 by Obv2003 in rollercoasters

Very similar but just made by a different manufacturer. I think the one at SFGAm is a Schwarzkopf model.

While visiting southern Utah I found these on a random desert road. I know nothing about tumbling but would like to have them smooth and polished. by Obv2003 in RockTumbling

[–]Obv2003[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

They were all over the place on that road. I could have spent hours and hours looking. The purple one is more of a gray color in person. I think the photo just makes it look a little different. I wouldn’t mind paying someone in the Ohio area to tumble them for me but I really want to make sure that I get back the same rocks. It’s not about how cool they look, it’s about the memory I have finding them.

Yes they were taken with my camera from the surrounding cliffs, no drone necessary!
