Fred's "Underestimate"

Kitten food level seems about right?

Cory's Underestimate

The Fremont Bridge, built in 1917, is a bascule bridge that crosses the Fremont Cut in Seattle.  Long before Europeans started moving into the area, Lake Union and the Puget Sound were connected by a small stream that ran from the lake into the sound.  As the population increased, a canal was eventually cut to connect the bodies of water, which eventually made it possible to all of the way from the sound to Lake Washington by water.

Today, this bridge crosses the canal and connects Seattle's Queen Anne and Ballard neighborhoods.  The canal sees a lot use from both small and large boats, and since water traffic has right of way, it opens and closes very frequently throughout the day.  All a boat has to do is whistle to get the bridge operator to open it!  According to a few sources, it is the most frequently opened bridge in the US.

When opening a drawbridge for a boat to pass under it, you certainly don't want to underestimate the height of the boat's mast. 

Underestimate - Robert

It's always interesting trying to see things through a baby's eyes. In this case, it looks like she was contemplating whether she had climbed too high (she underestimated the height?). For me, it was a little terrifying to let her continue to crawl up the stairs, as the railings were not "to code," and she could have easily fit through them. Fortunately, she's starting to get a little more cautious, but I'm learning, as a new parent, that I don't want to underestimate what she's capable of doing without any kind of warning.

CharDale's Underestimate

I got this shirt at last year's Big Omaha event. I totally underestimated the quality of this shirt. It's been worn and washed at least a dozen times. The pic was taken after 8 hours of use. And believe it or not, it had virtually no lint when I snapped the photo. It's practically unedited. 🤔How can this be possible on black fabric? Amazing!

CharDale's Forgotten

Everyone wants to drink vintage beers and aged whiskey. The classic bottle of Clearly Canadian always gets forgotten. With Clearly Canadian, you're instantly placed back in the 90's, where so many good drinks were swallowed.
Don't just enjoy this photo, go get yourself one because they've been resurrected from the dead!

Quentin's Forgotten floors

I've spent much of the past month trying to save these 1-1/2 inch maple floors.

Ryan's "Forgotten"

In 1968 a couple guys started digging a hole in a cornfield along the Missouri River... and found an old steamboat.

The Bertrand sank after preemptively reenacting the Titanic story with a dead tree on April 1, 1865 about 30 miles up river from Omaha. It was hauling merchandise to the gold fields in Montana, including a large shipment of mercury. I believe the people that found it were searching for that mercury.

It seems that most of the mercury was recovered soon after the sinking. Enough other cargo, including these cannon balls, lay forgotten underground after the river shifted to fill a museum at the DeSoto Bend Nature Preserve.

The story is more interesting than the photo.

There are a few more photos here.
