Oh..the tree or whatever laying in the road, left of the rock doesn't go to the other shoulder.
I knew that.....it was a test.....yeah, that's it...a test. :blush:

I guess you have to be there. I am not convinced the marks on the road are powerlines. Even after a major zoom on the image, I can't justify that. Gimme a clue? :worried:

they're not parrallel for one thing, and there are 7 of them........7....tires usually come in multiples of ..........two

You can even see the wrapping . :)

Sometimes not all the wheels lock giving an odd number.........but those are wires. :)

Thanks, L. J., great observation. (why didn't I think of that?) They just seem to be too neatly arranged. Something that is unusual in a disaster/accident scene. Evidently that's what caught my eye.
Of course, they could be the NEW lines which are about to be installed.
I'd love to follow up on this one.

UPGRADE DRAMA LEVEL:
Under this boulder COULD be a car and a motorcycle with a sidecar.
:haha:

yep.... with your image you can see them going into the grass. My program didn't give me that clarity. :blush:

Last night, I read on whatever news service AOL get their info from that they're going to dy-no-MIIIIIITE...er....blow it up. They had a picture on their page of the demolition guys setting it up to go sky high. I'd link but AOL doesn't like that.

Unless there's another Big Ass Boulder™ sitting on a mountain road out there that looks just like this one. Actually I wouldn't be too surprised, considering all the of many mudslides happening recently.

Hello all, my first post here.
My friend Greg lives in Oxnard California and sent me a picture of this boulder, which was blocking his route to work. Yes, it's one big assed boulder and it's not a photoshop. They were drilling holes into it yesterday to prepare to blow it up and yes, those are power lines on the road.
I guess there's a price to pay for living in 'paradise'. Me? Nah..i'll stay safe here in the midwest where all I have to worry about is tornados LOL
:eek:

I don't think that's grass on the left of the picture. I think that sucker flattened a tree, along with the power/telephone lines.

I found these pictures of the boulder being blown up on a local news site.

It's odd that it happened to land perfectly in the middle of the road. You'd think the momentum from its enormous weight would have carried it off the side of the road. :confused:

I'm betting that it had been sitting next to the road for as long as the road had been there and just decided that it couldn't take it anymore.

It almost certainly didn't roll...it just slid down from its resting place at the side of the road.

What I find scary is that they left a monster like that simply held in place by mud, so near a roadway.

i like it.
