Bunny is a fan of the television show Salvage Dawgs
and since we were in “the neighborhood“ (for medium values of “neighborhood”) of
Roanoke, VA we figured we would drive on out and
check out Black Dog Salvage.
It's not a bad place if you are into architectural salvage stores.
And it's huge.
A ton of stuff for sale,
from tiles to columns (Corinthian, Ionic and Doric),
doors,
and even stairways.
It's all for sale.
The main cast members were not there as they were out salvaging some more stuff,
but Bunny did recognize one person who has appeared on the show.
We had fun.
While at Black Dog Salvage I came across this:
It obviously stands for “Black Dog Salvage” but it caught my attention because it has another meaning to me
(yes, this is an inside joke from a long time ago).
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
