  1. I saw this girl in the trunk in Winfall last night. She actually asked me if i'd get in the trunk with her and help her find her panties. I said "you idiot, there's barely room enough for you in there, how do you expect me to fit in there too? You should be more careful, or you wouldn't have lost them in the first place!" Then she looked at me like I was the idiot...some people!
  2. I would have been here sooner, but I went to Graham's third birthday party. My brother-in-law Ronny even brought his '70 Commando out. He used to take it out on the trails and the pipeline, but now he doesn't drive it if the road is wet. He's got it looking good though- Saw a Swift truck in action on the way home. Looks like the front of the trailer got on his drive tires when he cut the corner too close and got it in the ditch. I got stuck like that in a mud puddle once- it had water in it, dirt parking lot, and I had no idea the hole was as deep as it was. The corner of the van got down on my tires and I couldn't move. Was about to call a wrecker when another truck came in and pulled me about 6 inches with a chain, and I was out. I saw a big Mack truck too. I saw a girl in a car earlier in the week. And the seldom seen and even seldomer photographed goat on Powell Mountain. Must have had a real gully-washer just before I got here! Even the hay field was flattened. I loaded coils at Galv-Tech in Pittsburgh one day and right after i'd finished chaining and tarping Greendash rolled in in a big cloud of dust. As hard as he works I don't blame him for knowing all the secret hiding spots to catch a nap. Saw this garage door again. And a Case tractor for sale. ...and here's a bucket for sale, in case you wanted to put a front end loader on the Case.
  3. I talked to clujo Wednesday or Thursday. He had stops in Boulder and Pueblo, Co, then Utah I think, then he was off to the great northwest. He runs almost as hard as Vision386 and Greendash. He checks in here pretty regularly, but he said his phone wouldn't let him comment or reply for some reason.
  4. Yes it is. I'm way more interested in history now than I was when I was younger. I remember passing by there when it was still open in the early 80's and thinking "that's pretty neat looking" and not giving it another thought. I had to take a wide load of steel to Pittsburgh and had to run rt.30 all the way because I couldn't run the turnpike because of the tunnel. Now it would probably be routed across rt.22. I've learned more about it on the interweb lately than I ever knew before. One website I was on said the owner used to leave a light and TV on all the time after it closed to deter squatters-whether or not that had anything to do with the fire,..who knows? Same deal with the South Fork Dam- I'd passed by it on rt.219 before and never even knew it was there, and you can hit it with a rock from 219.
  5. yay,my liker's working!
  6. It wasn't my- never mind.
  7. Sad situation...nobody really knows what happened. http://www.newsadvance.com/news/local/altavista-woman-dies-after-log-smashes-through-car-s-windshield/article_85c03cba-062b-11e5-8978-4bd81dd8d316.html
  8. Awesome!..stupid liker still doesn't work- any fish in that ocean?
  9. ...test post to see if i'm still double posting, so just ignore this post... I stopped by the Winfall fuel stop a while ago to get some gasoline, but I had to wait for this lollygagging bimbo to move before I could get to the pump.
  10. I'm having issues too- pictures of the week posted six different times this morning, the pictures were on one post, the captions on another. When I reply to a post it double posts but then I can easily delete one. My "like" button doesn't work either. Stupid computer.

  12. anyway, a Ford wrecker truck farther down the mountain. You don't see this much anymore- a pay phone! Another Ford. Another big Mack truck. A red car. Yellow rock trucks. A stuck forklift. A tunnel. Stupid bugs. Saw this girl in Winfall on the way home yesterday, but since it was my fault she was broke down I didn't stop to offer any assistance. So there!
  13. Maybe Barry can delete the five redundant posts, i'm scared to. I see the original gripping descriptions are on the last post, but no pictures. Pictures were on the first one, but no gripping descriptions until I edited it. P.S. "Stupid computers"...freightrain, 2008. P.P.S. By the way, perma banned?..isn't that a little harsh?
  14. But it's not my fault- oh, wait, everything is my fault this week. The Johnstown flood was my fault and it's my fault the famous ship hotel burned down too- but only until Monday!
  15. I don't know, it posted like 6 times. Last week it posted twice and when I deleted one it deleted both, so I don't know what the heck's going on.
  16. Great...not a double post this time, a multiple post and all my gripping descriptions that I painstakingly typed with one finger disappeared...grrrrr!
  17. .A big Mack truck in New Castle, Pa. A covered bridge near Greenville, Pa. A better picture of the South Fork Dam remains. You can see the observation decks on each side of the break in this one. The water was up to the top of the dam when it failed, so that gives you an idea just how much water was in the lake. Stopped by the old ship hotel site and looked around too. Still some burnt timbers laying around, lots of twisted metal and debris strewn down the mountain side. https://www.lincolnhighwayassoc.org/ca/traveler/2002-01/ship_hotel.shtml Nice view. The little building across the road used to be a service station. Aerial photo, 1941. http://roadsidephotos.sabr.org/LH/grandview.htm

  21. Ran two trips to Pa. and back this week with no breakdowns...yay! Saw a big Mack truck in New Castle, Pa. And a covered bridge near Greenville. I dropped down 219 again and got a better picture of the remains of the South Fork Dam. You can see the observation decks on both sides in this picture. There's one on each end of the dam remains, with the old lakebed behind. The water was up to the top of the dam when it gave way, so that gives you an idea of just how much water there was. And I stopped where the old ship hotel was and looked around. Lots of debris scattered down the mountain side, still some burnt timbers and lots of twisted metal mostly. Newspaper article about the fire- https://www.lincolnhighwayassoc.org/ca/traveler/2002-01/ship_hotel.shtml Nice view- Some early history and postcards here- http://roadsidephotos.sabr.org/LH/grandview.htm This little building across the road used to be a service station- Aerial photo,1941. Pretty neat stuff,eh? Saw a Ford wrecker truck a little farther down the hill. Don't see this much anymore- a pay phone! Another Ford.

  23. Here's two of four bikes I used to own, my current one's at the bottom...but it has two flat tires now.
