Welcome to HazzardNet Daisy Duke 01. Looks like you're a couple of hours away from Cooter's Place at Gatlinburg, have you ever been?. I also see from Google Maps that you have Claiborne County Airport nearby. It's good to see old Cassius is still about and has renamed Osage County after himself . I think Roger would like it there too - you appear to have Rogersville just down the road.

Signs of Hazzard
It's the 1st of April, so Happy Sadie Hogg Day y'all. Here's my version of a sign from that episode (S04E07).

The Official Dukes of Hazzard Trivia Thread
Sounds fine to me Roger, we just need to educate the rest of the world . Having said that, I can see problems asking for a glass of freshly squeezed Duke car juice in a restaurant, and one of the UK's cell phone operators will have to change it's name as well. Roger and waikiki correctly remembered that Luke thought Bubba was like a Mack truck. Unfortunately there are virtually none of these great trucks over here, we just get things like Volvos and Dafs and they're nearly all cabovers . Q. Rod Amateau directed/produced many episodes of Dukes, but appeared on screen in just one episode. Which episode was it and what was the name of his character?.

The Official Dukes of Hazzard Trivia Thread
It's great to have a spread of answers, afterall, they say variety is the spice of life (although I find paprika and cumin more useful ). The answer was 10 years, so waikiki is the only one to get it right. Q. In 'Find Loretta Lynn', Luke likens Bubba's size to which make of truck?: A) Kenworth Peterbilt C) Oshkosh D) Freightliner E) Mack F) White

Daisy's Shotgun Wedding
Here's a closer, angled view of the area MeadowMufn posted: The building MeadowMufn highlighted as the Beaudry shack seems to be a larger, barn-like structure. If this is the location it looks like the Beaudry's have their own cement pond. There is another tower on a hill on the south side of Placerita Canyon Road: Here is the tower at the eastern end of Lake Sherwood (top right of picture): Just for comparison, here is a shot of the Duke farm from the start of 'Go West, Young Dukes' in season 7. The tower is clearly visible on the hill behind: Warning: bad pun. It's a shame if the structures are water towers - I thought they might be Milo's twin brother Silo Beaudry!.

Daisy's Shotgun Wedding
I don't know if the Beaudry's shack is behind the Duke's barn, but here's a screengrab of the ultralights flying over it: I tried getting a grab of the fight scene, but the amount of movement makes the freeze frames very blurry. There is definitely a circular white structure behind them at the start of the fight that looks like silo or some sort of storage building. Maybe someone else will recognize it.

Yee-Haw as my 9 year old would say
Welcome to HazzardNet tammy. It seems like there's more kids getting into Dukes every day (which ain't a bad thing ). I'm glad you enjoy it too of course. You have 3 options: 1) You can post them as attachments (which non-members can't see). 2) You can upload them to photobucket, flickr or similar and include them in a post. 3) You can add them to your own album in the 'Member Galleries' section here.

Crazy Kyle's Artwork
Hi muddyK, welcome to HazzardNet. It looks like I've got some competition on the artwork front - I'll have to step my game up . It's great to hear that another generation is appreciating Dukes.

Shock Corridor
I'll have to keep an eye out for this one. According to IMDb the movie was selected to the National Film Registry, Library of Congress, in 1996. It also says that this 1963 movie was rejected for UK cinema certificates and remained unavailable until 1990, which may also explain why I haven't seen it.

The Official Dukes of Hazzard Trivia Thread
Thanks for the CB info Roger. CB radio never caught on over here, although that didn't stop us quoting CB slang from Dukes, SATB etc. at school . Y'all were close with your guesses, but Boss's wigs were imported from Hong Kong (Mr. Obama would not be pleased ). Q. In 'Dukes Meet Cale Yarborough' which of Cooter's tools did Cale and Garvey need to use?: A) Bench drill Lathe C) Tap and die D) Milling machine E) Pipe bender

Buildings of Hazzard
Regular visitors may have noticed that I haven't posted much artwork here lately. Hopefully this should explain why. The artwork below started out as a re-creation of the Hazzard Theater sign for the Signs of Hazzard thread, but grew into a monster project encompassing a whole block of Hazzard Square. After completing the theater sign I added some background and got carried away. I've tried to be as accurate as possible, with some details only clearly visble in a single episode. I also had to allow for the fact that some of the details change constantly, so what you see here may not exist together exactly like this in any single episode. I originally wanted to put more detail into varying the brickwork, but 'Seth M Berley's', for example, has somewhere in the region of 5000 bricks, so I settled for uniformity instead. For clarity (and to make my life easier) I have not attempted any interiors. I know that some episodes show gold lettering on the upper windows of some buildings, but I couldn't get any screengrabs where this text was readable. I can add them if anyone knows what they say. Here they are at a larger size: I do plan to do more of these, but may do something else in-between just for variety.
