TOO COOL Richard. Thank you for sharing that!!!

My Aunt Mary ( dad痴 oldest sister) was one of the first women welders (here in Victoria) working on ships during WWll.)

My cousin has photos and newspaper clippings somewhere.

You are a very sentimental Soul Terry. That strengthens your character.

There HAS to be a story behind the concrete barrier...it's too arbitrary for it to not have something meaningful...

Thanks Ovrszd... I did see where it was a gift from someone special...someone missed...

Seems unique enough, there might be a special story hiding in there somewhere...

Maybe we should start guessing...

Terry backed his forklift into her car?

Okay. The "Happy 49'th, Terry backstory...

I didn't want to install bollards in front of the tank in case the fire Marshall made me move it farther from the building.

I had been hoping for years to find a broken or cracked highway median to use and of course I was way too cheap to buy a new one.

Sharon worked nights at the local neighborhood pub and she convinced one of the local road crews that frequented after work (their yard is minutes away from the farm) that a median would make a great birthday gift.

I was a little surprised to say the least when a crane mounted tractor trailer unit, arrived with a small flotilla of pickup trucks and flaggers to place a brand new concrete median in front of my tank.

Pretty much one of the most memorable birthdays ever.
