Hey, I seem to recall you posting up pics of a Garganey. If you still have pics laying about, how about a top and side view?
Thanks,

Based on the number of views for this thread,,,,,,,,,,,, you must still be using a "party line". Only us old farts will understand this. [;)]
 
Isn't that a phone line that was connected to other "parties" so that anytime one person of that "party" was on the phone then the others of the "party" could hear too?

They don't teach that in school anymore

You are correct. Each location/home had a distinct ring pattern but any one on that line (serving several locations) could listen and join in on the conversation. The original "conference call". My grandpa on my mom's side had a party line out on his farm in southern Iowa. You could sometimes here the "click" when another person picked up their receiver.

Good golly, guess you never know who's going to be on that party line. [w00t]

Gotta watch what you say on the party line. [laugh]

I?ve been enjoying the mud buddy shaft thread, but I figure here is a good place as any to say it.

Well, you know what they say about free advice.

I?ve got some pretty good free advice here over the years!
