When Does A Tripod Have Nine Legs?

[bigwheelzip]

When it's the Nenana Ice Classic Tripod. This weekend the ice marker is placed on the frozen Tanana River in Nenana, Alaska. Then people can buy charity chances to guess the date and time that the river thaws enough for it to move.

So if your in the Fairbanks neighborhood, join the party.

Well, then maybe the Lemon Sucking Contest will convince you.

Possibly an OCD-pod? Probably designed by an engineer who flunked out of barber college.

You might have something there. Railroad workers started this tradition in 1916. Maybe reminiscent of a railroad trestle?

Wow, that looks like something designed by the Army Corps of Engineers.

Nope, designed by an I.E. (imaginary engineer).

Have a blessed day,

I lived and worked just south of there a few miles back in the 70s and never even got close to the right time. People up there really work at having a fun time. At least the sun shines SOME by now

Maybe they kept adding legs until it was level.
