Popular Post other dog Posted May 25, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 25, 2014 I might have this machine working now- ran 2 virus scans, deleted about 9,000 files, and fixed about 800 registry errors with the Fix-It Utilities disc.I think I hit the jackpot on pictures this week- saw these units in Roanoke Monday morning.Saw this big Mack log truck in West Virginia.Saw this girl in this car.Saw this B model in McKees Rocks, Pa. I missed part of it going in, but I got the rest of it when I came back by it- tough spot to get a picture, backed in between 2 buildings.Saw this lake.Saw the wrecker that towed my truck in from Levaisy, W.V. at Owens Market the other night.Later I saw 2 rhinos in Bedford.And another girl in another car who's apparently very happy to be 21.Random road shots in Virginia, West Virginia and Maryland- it's a pleasure to get off of 81 and away from all the traffic and go through the woods.Too early for the goats to be on the hill- they usually come down just before dark and cover that hill side. Maybe they feel safe from bears there.Saw all these cows heading for that little spot of shade.Saw a pretty hot but very bored looking female type cop at a road paving project in Pa.Saw a utility pole too.Lots of big yellow machines.In case anyone's interested...Had to go to Petersburg to load Friday after I unloaded in Lynchburg....and saw this tank in Crewe. 14 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

gearhead204 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 I could use the old dodge pulled up next to the fence to use as spare parts for mine. After I seen the photo a couple of years ago of the manure spreader rat rod, that spreader would be awesome to build another one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
other dog Posted May 25, 2014 Author Share Posted May 25, 2014 I motored over to Altavista earlier today and saw a big snapping turtle walking along the shoulder of the road. I slammed on the brakes and backed up to it and told Jo "get out and grab it by the tail and throw it in the back"...she said something like "duck stew"- it rhymed with that anyway.So I said "take a picture of it then".So she said "you do it!"By then the turtle had made a sharp left turn and was running for the creek. She did get a picture of it's hind end before it disappeared into the weeds. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryS Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Thanks, great pictures. Glad you got your computer squared away. That mail box is about as obsolete as the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vision386 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 I think that tank is a WW2 era M5A1 light tank,or one of its many variants.......................................Mark Quote Mack Truck literate. Computer illiterate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farmer52 Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Nice pics! Questions....why do the female driver's in your pics have their left leg propped up? More ventilation? And they both look like they are "jawing" on the phone. Quote Ken PRR Country and Charter member of the "Mack Pack" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post vision386 Posted May 31, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 31, 2014 It's perfectly ok to ride like that as far as I'm concerned,as long as the car is equipped with airbags and you're wearing your seatbelt!................................Mark 5 Quote Mack Truck literate.
