I just got home from a work trip taking back roads. I went past this house about 7:30am so didn't want to knock.
Anyone know this guy?

Yes, he lives just west of Wilmington. I have stopped and talked to him a few times in last 20+ years.

I rarely comment on stuff like this, but gotta be honest ... if someone I didn't know posted a pic of my place/stuff on the internet with approximate location and asking what's on the inside...without asking me ... I might have an issue.
Just sayin

If you don't want people to know - then you probably shouldn't have a bunch of collectable stuff sitting where it's in plain sight from the road.
Just saying.
All my stuff is inside under lock and key.
Later . . .

Jim so let me get this straight .... if I have signs on my building I'm asking for you to stop, take pics, post it on the internet and get people to comment publicly what else I have inside? That's pretty twisted thinking.

That's pretty twisted thinking. I didn't take the picture, it's from google maps!!! And to me, posting on Oldgas is a place of trust. No? And in the opening post, I only asked if anyone knew him. I suppose I could have taken the rest of the conversation to PM. Geez, IMO, ya'll need to chill out. I doubt crooks are going to be banging down his doors any time soon because of a post on Oldgas!!

Steven,
That's where you're wrong.
There have been numerous thefts from collections displayed on the outsides of buildings.
Many from people that are - or were - on this site.
And, yes Ohio Oil, you are begging for people to stop, take photos and then post them to any stupid online forum they want.
Jim
