Here's a long lost picture of Rob's camper I first posted in May,2009. Thought I deleted it long ago, but it was in the Kodak public pictures folder...whatever that is. I still try to maintain the standard for poor photochopping today.

well that's good news if it works as advertized- i've never had any luck trying to program a universal remote. my mouse and webcam are both made by Logitech.

thank you Mike, and the same to you and yours.

Here's what i've got going on- turkey in the smoker, and I made 2 sweet potato pies.

I sense a lot of pain in her future...

she must've meant shorty.

That was my first thought too, but Jo said it said Bonneville.Evidently she knows her Bonnevilles, that's what it is- this is a '59 Bonneville Safari. This looks more like it,this is a '60 model.

...and the usual gripping descriptions! Like- the James River at Iron Gate yellow caboose in Rainelle,W.V. the curve at the bottom of the mountain,west of Rainelle. Many,many trucks have tipped over in this curve! the ol' "mystery hole"- there's a bear and a gorilla on the roof. West Virginia road shots A big (huge actually) round thing at the bottom of the mountain just east of Gauley Bridge. East Liverpool,Ohio from across the river in Chester,W.V. It was dark when I took this picture. this was taken from the same spot, but it is daylight now. East Liverpool,Ohio Pittsburgh, Pa. these are taken from rt. 51 north, heading to McKees Rocks. station wagon I saw in South Carolina,believed to be a Pontiac Bonneville. pretty good size pond in S.C. Saw this girl by the pond. "South of the Border" sign on 95,just one of dozens. There were plenty of cops in S.C. yesterday too- this is just 2 of many. I thought i'd just make the one round to Chester/McKees Rocks and back to Lynchburg this week, but when I unloaded in Lynchburg Tuesday, they had a load there going to Columbia,S.C. with a return load of lumber in Mt. Gilead,N.C, which would be on the way home anyway. I thought "that's not too bad, I could still be in pretty early tomorrow". But...headquarters called me and said "forget the lumber, your ass is going to Charleston to pick up a load." This girl approached me on the street in Charleston while I was getting loaded. She wanted to know if I could lay over and come to her place for a drink but I said "heck no,I gotta go smoke a turkey,now get the hell outa here!" turned out to be this- I've got 14 straps on the trailer, and used 13 of them.Pretty neat pictures I took after I got to the yard last night. It was dark then too. took this from up on top of the load. a steerable dolly loaded on a drop deck. they pulled it out of the weeds last week to get it roadworthy, hasn't been used for a long time. it's a Mack truck chassis, I don't know what model it is, but the right frame rail goes out in the front while the left one is straight- maybe it's a U-model. A B53 mixer I also saw this girl hitchhiking. Once again I was going the wrong way, but since everybody seemed to think I should pick them up, I conked her in the noggin with a tire beater and threw her in the truck anyway. She was not very thankful when I let her out,but she still had a smile on her face!

just don't order it from hatcity...

CCR was good too, eh?

yes Vlad. 11 of them.

I'm not cooking a turkey this year, got something else in mind.

The red Diamond Reo is at a coal mine on rt. 20 between Charmco and Levaisy, W.V.

This is my favorite Overdrive picture!

Thanks Randy, same to you and yours, and everyone else of course! I saw truckloads of Christmas trees on the road a couple of weeks ago, long before Thanksgiving- don't make no sense!

must have been.

Superliner

Thanks! I won't have time to stop.

Yesterday I spent all afternoon blowing and raking leaves. Got most of them into the woods in the back yard. Still got the front yard to do. At least the armadillo can breathe. Jo came out and wanted me to go to the store with her so I could take some pictures of the sky. I said "no, now beat it! I've only got a little more to do and i'll be finished." So 5 seconds later I was sitting in the pickup with my camera. It was a beautiful sky, but the strange thing was when I got out about a half mile up the road from here to take the picture I counted 11 vapor trails in the sky. They didn't show in the picture, they were to the right of the clouds in the clear sky. Probably military jets training, I don't know. I'll be leaving for Chester,W.V. in a little while. I used to look for U-models all the time, but now I think i'll just look for girls hitchhiking...seems to be more of them than U-models.

there was so much tire and brake smoke I couldn't tell.

I saw this girl hitchhiking the other day, but I was going in the wrong direction.

but what about these? these are history too! I've never eaten a lot of twinkies, but I do like these. Did I mean, I did like these.

but what about them armadillos?
