Part 2. I went to Punxsutawny Thursday, loaded in Sharon yesterday, and did indeed see more stuff- I saw this fog and that rabbit in Punxsutawny. Saw a couple of wreckers. A cabover Ford...stupid sign, got right in the way. Tried to get a picture of that tractor up there by the MH, never even noticed the Cruiseliner until I was putting these pictures on the computer this morning. I saw a yellow Mack. and another Mack. A couple of old Fords. And some black and white animals out standing in a field.

Part 1, because I might go out and see more stuff. Looks like an Autocar dump truck at the auto auction place on I-90 at the rt. 98 Fairview, Pa. exit. Ford in the fence. Lots of aluminum wheels and blanks at the aluminum getting place. And a dumpster full of ladders. This is a Peterbilt, but I thought it looked really good- just enough fancying up without going overboard. This is from rt. 322 just north of Harrisburg, Pa. This is a ...well, I have no idea what it is really. Looks like a home made VW trike/bike/pickup/service truck/hotdog cart/tool wagon/campermobile. It was motoring down I-81 in West Virginia yesterday. And I saw several girls in cars, but I only got a picture of one. She even has a phone in her lap.

Wearing sensible shoes is very important, this motorcycle safety photo shows an example of improper shoes. You should not wear spike heel shoes when you ride your bike!

I like a classic B model, don't really like a lot of added stuff on a B, like 8" stacks, and customized so they don't even look like a B model any more. But I saw this one on facebook and I do like it! Excellent, as Bob might say.

Me too, I agree with you agreeing with Superdog.

.

yep- i'd eat that.

hope she never reads "odds and ends" on BMT, or you're screwed big time!

yeah, for that road something like the old Hayes or Pacific log trucks would make more sense, but I don't know where you'd find anything like that any more. Now those are real log trucks!

Another older picture of the big yellow ladle pot mover machine.

Will do Ken. I always message him if I see his green light on, but like slpwlker said, he's not on facebook very often either.

that's good Vinny, some schools have been open down here for 2 weeks already! I always got out around the first of June and didn't have to go back until September.

that was August 14 when I talked to him, just happened to see him on there. Said he was taking it slow and easy until he got back in the swing of things.

yeah Bob, our ribs look way better than her's...we just don't look as good cooking them!

talked to him on facebook a couple weeks ago, he said he'd had another stent put in, and the Texas heat wave wasn't helping things, but he was doing fairly well otherwise.

"no, I don't need a ride, i'll just walk- but thanks for the offer though"

Nice! I only rode in a Corvette once in my life, and that was just a couple of years ago.

Thank you very much indeed!

need pockets, gotta have a pocket for your pen, lighter, and a pack of camels.

those were my favorite model Corvettes, I liked the split windows and the way they tapered in towards the rear. '66-'67 i'm thinking?

...and now- the rest of the story! didn't see much else really. Took this from Truck Enterprises in Lynchburg, looking up 29 north. Happened to catch 2 big Mack trucks going south.They said the truck would be finished at 2:30 or 3pm, but it wasn't done until 5. closer look- Their Brigadier yard dog and plow truck. I did finally see a new airbag. and I saw another girl in another car again. you'd need a crowbar to get a credit card between her knees, her momma taught her well! Big Komatsu dozer on the coal pile...well, the blade anyway. Had to go from Oakland, Md. to Warren, Oh. to get this load at Flex-Strut. Got it strapped and half tarped- note the felt pad in front to protect tarp from sharp edges- got a bunch of them out of a dumpster at Lane Steel in McKees Rocks. All tarped, at the yard this morning. The nice looking big Mack for sale in W.V. I held the camera out the window and aimed behind me to get this, sorry it's so blurry.

I fueled up at Truck World today.

Got a new airbag, and new U bolts. They say the U bolts were loose to start with, let the axle move, sheared off the centering pin, and that's what caused the airbag to suffer catastrophic failure, probably rubbing against the tire. Got more pics. when I get home, i'm in West Virginia now, on the laptop instead of riding like I should be doing.
