  1. thanks, those are good looking B's. The black and blue looks really good.
  2. never got to Nashville, but getting through Knoxville is bad enough. From the 75/40 split to the 40/81 split is just a big pain in the ass, very congested. Getting there right around 5 o'clock Friday evening didn't help either.
  3. yep, came up 59 to 24 to 55 over to McMinnville, then north on 56 to where I loaded, place called Tennsmith. Then I took 56 north up to 40.
  4. Remember him best from McHale's Navy. Saw on the guide where he was on Hee-Haw on RFD TV yesterday, but I didn't watch it.
  5. Saw this on facebook, on a page called Va. Large Cars. I'm 99.9999901799999% sure it's the one I used to drive.
  6. Great pictures, thanks! Been working on this stupid computer all morning again, kept freezing up on me, and i'm already out of likes!
  7. yeah, it would be nice to have, but it would probably cost a small fortune to feed it.
  8. Yeah, I wanted the bigger L820 model Nikon mainly because it looked way cooler, but I read a lot of online camera reviews and decided for what I wanted-road shots- this point and shoot would be better suited for it. It actually had a higher rating than the L820 did. The zoom is just awesome- it's a 14X zoom and the Canon is only 5X, but it's so clear when it's zoomed all the way it's amazing. Here's another test picture I took this morning, standing on the front porch. The Jeep is parked 2 houses down. The first picture is not zoomed in at all, the second two are zoomed all the way...i'll just let the pictures speak for themselves. I'm liking it so far!
  9. I forgot to say the truck that turned over was a Western Star- you can see it in the picture just to the left of the 50mph. exit sign. Passenger side windshield is gone.The driver was not hurt.
  10. yes indeed, I hope so...now, if I could just get all the wimmins to open the passenger window so there's no reflection!
  11. Yeah, I ordered a new camera last week. I was tired of taking so many blurry pictures with my Canon Powershot 16 megapixel camera. My old Kodak was 7.1 megapixels and it took much better pictures. I got a Nikon this time, another small "point and shoot" but it's supposed to be pretty fast, 5 pics. in a second on burst, so maybe I can take better road shots. This is a test picture I took sitting here at the computer. I took both from the exact same spot- I turned around and took a picture of the thermostat on the wall. It is about 11 feet away. One is with the camera zoomed in as close as it goes, the smaller inset picture is not zoomed in at all. This is taken with the Canon- And this is the Nikon- Pretty impressive so far, the non- zoomed pictures aren't much different, but you can read everything on the thermostat in the Nikon picture that's zoomed in and I can't even read it sitting here. The Canon doesn't zoom in nearly as close, and it's still blurry.
  12. The sides on them run in a rail outside of the trailer rubrail, so it must be about 2" extra on each side. Joe is indeed a very nice guy- he told me "I'm buying this time, git whatever you want, long as it ain't over $4"...so I had a glass of water and a toothpick. uh...OK- Absolutely- you've got to at least get a piece of them!..4 wheelers that cut you off that is, not necessarily chunky wimmens.
  13. Not really, stuff like this is more my cup of tea...
  14. Well, yeah, I kept it busy j....never mind...
  15. I only made one trip this week, went to Shreveport La. with a machine, actually it was some kind of pump. It was 10 feet high so it had to be in an enclosed drop deck trailer. I noticed a spider web running from the mirror to the fender Tuesday...didn't see this huge ass spider until Thursday morning. I sprayed window cleaner up in there to kill it, but it made another appearance yesterday. I'll spray ether in there Monday morning, I do not like spiders! That's the bad part of pulling a Conestoga, they're so wide you can't see much out of the mirrors. I saw the Mississippi River along the way. There's a log truck over there on a dirt road raising the dust cloud. Combines in the field. Unloading in Shreveport. Girls in cars of the week- Saw this nice looking Mack in Meridian, Ms. on the way back... ...driven by none other than nocluejoe66 himself! We were headed in opposite directions, but we stopped and broke bread in Meridian. He even paid for my meal- thanks Joe! I passed by Chunky, and crossed the Chunky River, but I did not stop there. Got a newfangled secret spy camera installed in the truck Monday. The load going down paid both ways, but I stopped in McMinnville, Tn. on the way back and picked up some machine tools for N.B.Handy in Lynchburg. The long and winding straight road. Tennessee road shots. Saw this accident east of Knoxville. Story on the cb was that a car that was getting off at the exit cut in front of the truck from the left lane to get off and the truck driver had to swerve to keep from hitting the car and rolled it over.
  16. I just posted some pictures here- https://www.facebook.com/REODiamondTandReoenthusiasts and someone wanted to know where that red and white one was located. Might be a good place to mention your items for sale!
  17. Other Dog. Here he's chasing squirrels. ...and taking a break under the bush.
  18. Found a couple more pictures, saw this one in Cincinnati.
