Pallets in fields

My concern is growing... More and more innocent civilians are contributing to pallet migration and colonization. Here we see your typical soccer mom vehicle getting hoodwinked into supporting their yet unknown mission.

I have to admit, I have a pallet in my back yard that came with an implement I purchased last year. For some strange reason, I can't seem to get rid of it. My wife has claimed it hers for some reason known only to her. Is there a call for help center I can contact that has help for this type of behavior?

Look at this, my friends. Look what I found.

It's pallets painted as flags and trying to hide out in the open by looking patriotic.
This way they can move about more freely without raising suspicion.

What a brilliant move on their part! We can't even burn them once caught. Serenity now!

Pallets are as handy as a multi-tool on your belt... I respectfully suggest that your wife has recognised this fact and she'll probably desire more (think Christmas, birthday and anniversary presents! You'll thank me later. :thumbsup

.

I've used pallets around my sprawling 6 acre property for a multitude of uses & projects such as 2x 6-panel hay rings, implement 'dollies' and to just keep things up & off the ground. I also have a 'ready reserve' of pallets for future applications.

It's when your yard looks like an old-pallet retirement home and you can't bear the thought of giving one up because you may need it, that you have a problem. Otherwise, it's just good Pallet Husbandry.

Just stumbled on this thread. I just want to take a moment to thank sparc for starting this thread with an innocent and honest question. (Had to go back to the beginning to understand the context.) I also want to thank each and every one of you who have contributed your "wisdom and research". I have now been laughing basically non stop for 30 minutes! :laughing: My dog is wondering what the heck is going on again. He's been doing that a lot lately since I've started frequenting this forum. I'm still dying to know what the certified and bonafide reason is for these strange pallet formations. A google search just brings me right back here in some kind of hilarious, twisted, circular, echo chamber reference loop! Thanks again to all. Now I'll keep my eyes open for those of whom we do not speak.

Did you just stumble onto this thread or..... did it find you like it did for most of us? You're hooked now so enjoy the ride and don't forget to duck every time you hear a strange noise and tip your hat when you see a pallet.

Always be alert around pallets, and also watch for them in unexpected places.

Notice the first pallet that needs further investigating....... Where are they from?
Hmmm, 7 original colonies and 16 states. Very interesting.
