other dog

I put a couple of extra rolls of duct tape in the car for her. That should take care of any problems.

Looked at one down at P.L.Duncan's, also red with a 290 Cummins and 10 speed. First one i'd ever seen except in pictures. P.L.'s was in really nice shape. I don't think he wanted to sell it at the time, but George Tackaberry wanted it bad. I wouldn't mind having it myself.

And best of all, my stack didn't go to the junk pile- I already found a home for it. Jo will be so surprised- i'm sure she'll love it.

I didn't realize I was looking like an idiot because of my one stack Ranger, I thought it was because of pretty much everything else I did. Anyhow, I spent all morning taking my stack off and redoing every thing. Here's my new look- looks factory, eh?

Yeah, there's some hard pulls on 422. Not too long but really steep, especially the one before you get to Nolo. They have good pizza at the store at the top of the hill though.

Road shots, rt.20 in W.V. Nice Jeep trail down that power line. A Burns' Mack down past this big woodpile. A girl in a car. Saw this girl in Winfall on the way home last night. She appeared to be having mechanical difficulties and tried to flag me down, but it was getting dark so I didn't stop. The rest of the fish story-

I was looking on the computer for a picture of my pickup to photo chop for research purposes and ran across these. I hadn't biggerized them and read the captions for a long time, thought it was pretty funny, worthy of a re-run. And how about this one- I don't think this particular movie ever got made did it? I need to order the DVD from Amazon if it did. I took some new pictures this week too. This is a dragon fly that was on the ground by my truck. This is a big Mack truck with a load of pulpwood. This is a big Mack truck with a load of chips. This is at Welfer Street and Beechwood Blvd. in Pittsburgh. Site of U.S. Steel's Homestead Works. About the only evidence of it ever being there are the smokestacks. Part of it was on this side too. I loaded beams there once. You can see the Carrie Furnace way in the background,across the river.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrie_Furnace You turned off the bridge to get into U.S.Steel, I loaded over to the left. I think they made beams there and plates on the other side. I was there in the early 80's. This is the door to the offices at Gal-Tech. Road shot, from the toll road between Uniontown, Pa. and Morgantown, W.V. A big pile of wood. Dismantled FWD at the Mead-Westvaco woodyard at Rupert, W.V. Don't know if it's being refurbished or being scrapped. Pretty good picture of this plane for just holding the camera up to the window and snapping without looking. Big machines. Trailer's dog-legging pretty bad! Big motor.

I didn't go overboard with mines, I just got a one-stack Ranger...looks awesome though, eh?

Well, ive never mentioned this before, but i'm actually an eskimo from somewhere up in the great white north. I was chasing a seal in my kayak one day when a polar bear started chasing me.I started paddling furiously to get away, and just kept paddling and paddling. Next thing I knew, I had paddled that kayak all the way to Gladys. I got away from the polar bear, but I was too tired to paddle all the way back, so I just decided to stay here. I like it all right, but you can't find decent blubber around here anywhere...and that's my story.

My uncle bought a brand new one in 68 or 69 I think, 383 4 speed. It was blue with a black top, definately bad-ass!

Whatever works.

I've only been to Montana one time. That was in January a few years ago and I remember thinking then that it was the prettiest place i'd ever seen. I get into some traffic, but it's not usually too bad. I do most of my running across West Virginia and Western Pa. We've got guys that run northeast all the time, to D.C, Baltimore, N.Y, N.J. Ct, etc. Now that I couldn't handle, but they like it.

I got those at the Walmart store in Altavista, there's a Sam's Club in Lynchburg but i'm not in the club.

I grilled some ribs yesterday- Oops, wrong picture, that's not ribs, that's grilling tools.Theses are ribs- After a short rain delay I wrapped them to finish cooking them. I was only going to cook the beast ribs, but I picked up the pork spare ribs at the last minute for back-up, just in case the beef ribs sucked. Which they did. I'm done trying to find decent beef ribs, all I ever get are all bone, fat, and gristle. Waste of money, i'm sticking to hog ribs from now on.

Doesn't matter, I didn't see any of them either. Unless that's what's harassing this crow- if it is, I saw one!

I saw another one in Nettie but I couldn't get a picture. I was going to turn right on rt. 20 and he was coming from the other direction and was going to make a left on 20. I told him to go ahead because he had an empty log trailer. I probably would have held him up if he'd had a loaded log trailer.

Don't know anything about it really, I guess it was somebody's goat that wandered off and found a home on that cut. I've seen it there for several years, sometimes way up high and a couple of times grazing right down by the side of the road. Now I always look for it when I go by there.

I've gotten similar e-mails before though. I've only got one person on my Skype contacts, and that's Old Bill.

who the hell's driving?..they should let Bugs drive!

now that's just funny right there!

This week started out slow as far as pictures go, but things picked up as the week went along. I went to Strattonville, Pa. with lumber, loaded steel at McKees Rocks back to Lynchburg, Punxsutawny with lumber, steel from Sharon to Lynchburg, then lumber to Strattonville, and loaded a 42,000lb. single coil in Pittsburgh yesterday going to Troy, Va. Saw this older W900B at Lane Steel. It was driven by an older gentleman who looked to be well in his 70's. The top of the hood was about a foot taller than the top of my head. Saw this red truck there too. Then I saw a man on a sign with a parrot on his shoulder. He'll clean your drains and sewer and also inspect your video camera for ya. A girl in a car showing legs and some boobage too. A crow on a light pole...sorry, it's the best I could do- I didn't see a teradactyl all week. Saw a big Mack truck at Summersville, W.V. Saw a big Mack truck in Rupert, W.V. Then they were stopping traffic on rt.20 to clean the ditches, right on this steep hill. I weighed the load of lumber I had because it was pulling so hard. I weighed it at Barkeyville, Pa. and was grossing 81,780. I had burned off about 70 or 80 gallons of fuel by then. The bills said I had on 44,000lbs, and I weigh just over 32,000 empty, full of fuel. Hmmmmm... A girl in a car in Summersville. Looks like she might be in a family way...or maybe she just likes Yuengling. Saw a big Mack truck going north backwards on 79. I saw Pittsburgh. Saw some pedestrians in Pittsburgh. ...and once again- A big Mack truck parked in Rupert. A big Mack truck parked between Crawley and Sam Black Church. Another girl in another car. Big coil.

Happy birthday!

Slow week for pictures again, I didn't see too many photo-worthy sights, and the best girl in a car got away. I saw this here truck for sale in Moneta, Va. I saw a rainbow. And once again, I spotted the seldom seen and even seldomer photographed goat on Powell Mountain, just laying in the shade. Then I spotted a big-ass pickup going up I-79. I went to Glassport, Pa. with a load of pipes, where I saw this girl out walking the dog. And this girl was just out for a stroll- I even saw wild aminals there. A Ford parked on the street. I don't know what kind of car this is- Picked up a nice load of coils at Galv-Tech- only had to go 6 miles from Glassport to get them. Saw a UPS truck in Daleville, but my windshield was really dirty. Yep, pretty dirty. I saw a girl in a car on 220 alternate too- stupid tinted windows. I ordered a camera from Amazon, and got this big-ass box- ...but it was a box in a box in a box. Speaking of big asses- saw this blonde going in the store.

Bruce wanted to be Caitlyn, now Caitlyn wants to be a truck driver. It was his- I mean her-first trip to New York,we should give him-I mean her- a break. I'd probably cry if I had to go to New York City in the first place. I'm in Pittsburgh now.
