Timothy Maikshilo Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Remember when I said I was jealous of the Mass guys hauling snow. Well WTF? now snow? I want to be landscaping. Between the stupid weatherman and the jackass state guy whole calls us out at the last minute. We got 3 inches in an hour and a half and then another 2. It turned to rain anyway but it was heavy to push. I was in the old girl last night. Chasing the dog's bum again. He really did need a sweater last night. Cheers, RobRob, we are still getting snow here. The wife is working an hour and a half away in Williamstown so she wasn't happy about heading out this AM. The old dog looks great, I like the older R hoods much better.

RFCDrum Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Keep the snow Tim. I can't get any work done. It's going to be cold for the next 5 or 6 six days so it's not going out so fast. That old girl runs great. That truck had everything new in it when Joe bought it. He's just been doing mostly cosmetic stuff to it.

Chuck P Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Rob, you're way up there! When I ran for Penske, the furthest I was up that way was Oakland area. Many times to Parsippany and Pine Brook too. Pretty part of the state up that way...... a lot different than my neck of the woods. Quote "If it's all the sime to you...

RFCDrum Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Remember Chuck 287 didn't go all the way up. You had to get off in Montville. That was a pain in the ass for us having to go to Wayne and cut over. We used to do a lot of work in Mountain Lakes and out by Culver Lake in Sussex County. Where is Columbus exactly? It is nice up here but I have to live just over the border I can't afford Bergen County.

A stone's throw from Fort Dix. Lot's of farmland but not quite a "piney" either. 1 Quote "If it's all the sime to you...

RFCDrum Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I remember there was an accident on the Turnpike coming up from my mothers in Blackwood and I had to get back to Silverton and decided to go cross country. I think I wound up by McGuire Air force base. There was some piney areas back there too. And the Jersey Devil.

Green Dash Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 As a Long Islander, I was raised in the belief that NJ was just a stinky place one had to drive through on the way to PA. I had no idea about the beautiful hills in the NW an seemingly endless farmland in the south. I wish I'd invested in Hoboken real estate back in the 80's when folks first realized you could see the Manhattan skyline from there.Talk about homesick. I wish I could re-create the pungent (and possibly carcinogenic) smell of the northern end of the NJTP in the form of an air freshener. It would bring back some great memories. 1 Quote Jim Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/29202-jersey-macks/page/26/#findComment-173877 Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they still had the St Patricks parade we would march there with the pipe band and at the end we would always hang out at The Texas Arizona bar and the second you walk in there the girls are all over you.
