I think scientists tried to reproduce them in labs but failed. It's not due to cars as horse carts users were already complaining about them prior to cars. We lost an amazing number of screws this week. Even with locked and gaffer taped cupboards, some still opened and spilled their guts onto the floor. If the contents is only clothes, it's alright. But we had showers of rice, spaghetti, etc. Worst of all was maple syrup spillage... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is one block in that whole approach that isn’t paved and is a washboard. I knew it was there from accidentally going on it once several years ago & have avoided it since like the plague. Then there I was again, distracted by heavy traffic. I think the car wasn’t the only thing chattering. My teeth & brains were too. And I was going about 15 mph. Gen, I think I’d lose my mind if I had to go over a washboard for miles on end. Especially with all the goods you are hauling around. I’d fear for my camera equipment!

Ideal speed for corrugation is 70kph to fly over those. We also deflate our tyres a lot. I was also worried about my photo equipment, especially my 500mm lens but so far so good. I store one bag on the bed to amortise the shaking around. For the other two bags, I just cross fingers. We've done several thousand kms on these roads. In fact, as soon as I finish this message, we're off for 3 full days drive on one of those. The garage that replaced our wipers this morning warned us that he has rescued many vehicles from where we're going. We shall see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're currently geographically in the opposite direction in WA. I can't say on the coast because we're in the Bush, in the spirit of this pub 😁 It is such a weird feeling to be writing this from the wilderness, camped by a dry creek with a glass of wine, cattle mooing in the distance. It's so hot but we like it. Starlink is a godsend. Edited September 19, 2023 by gvallee 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they had domestic cats in Latin America prior to Columbus. wim Probably not the domestic cat, Felix cattus. I knew a Nicaraguan photographer who said an ocelot was his best pet ever. Mesoamerica also has a number of smaller wild cats: margay, jaguarundi , and at least one small spotted cat that kills chickens. Jaguars were prominent in Mesoamerican mythology. Chinese also did some earlier domestication attempts with their leopard cats, the same species that's crossed with domestic cats for Bengal Cats. Some one on Quara said that Columbus's voyagers saw people with what were probably jaguarundis (tge size of a Maine Coon cat, but more elongated, with a thick tail, several color morphs). People often tame any number of creatures. Ocelots have rather fierce loves for their one human and don't do well being left alone. Margays and ocelots were sold in pet stores in the US when I was a child (over 60 years ago). Some people are breeding those two species for exotic cat fanciers, don't know the regulations in the US on those now. Domestic/Exotic hybrids are popular in some circles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
