Popular Post other dog Posted February 6, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted February 6, 2015 Here's some pictures from last week that I didn't post, because nobody wants to see that stuff...anyhow,...fish frying in the pan, with the hush puppy batter ready to go next-Clouds across the road-I wanted some country style ribs to cook last week but they didn't have any at the store, so I picked up some spareribs that were in the "reduced" bin. Slightly green looking, but- hey, I haven't felt too good lately...anyway, they had country style ribs in Food Lion the next day and Jobyna said "hey, let's get some of these!" I said "we just had ribs yesterday, i'm not getting more ribs today!"A little while later, they were on the grill. I par-boiled them first in Miller High Life beer, with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Then I put them on the grill and smothered them with Bone Sucking Sauce when they were almost done.I got what I wanted too though, the skinless-boneless chicken thighs- they're "the cat's ass" as Larry Wales used to say, or "the bomb" as Jo would say. I marinated them for a couple hours in...I forgot the name of it, some store bought marinade... before I grilled them, and they were delicious.After plattering, ready to take it inside-Then, after cooking stuff I eventually had to get back to work, because like most of us I like to eat and have electricity, a phone, and other things that cost money.I saw this dawg on a four wheeler when I left Sunday-Then I saw these old trucks in the field-Saw this structure off in the distance just north of Ruckersville, Va.Upon further investigation on Google Earth, it's a highway traffic safety something there, where they do crash tests on various vehicles.The next day, coming down rt. 15 in Maryland, I saw a sign advertising Keystone beer for $15.99 for a 30 pack.Then I saw this beautiful golden statue-When I left going to Fairview, Pa. I saw a big Mack truck, a Chevrolet, and a short bus at Art Reed's place in Montvale, Va.Saw this great looking tuna salad sammich at the little fuel stop on I-90 just before I got to the Fairview exit. I told Bulldogman that this was my motivation for getting all the way up there. I don't know who Teresa is but she sure makes a good sammich.I parked beside this truck...looks like it had been there a while.Snow removal equipment-Carter Lumber in Fairview. I had to wait until they pushed the lot before I got unloaded.They did a nice job!I need to turn between these two buildings, so they left a stack of lumber and the plow truck there to make it more difficult.I went all the way down to the end and circled around to get out.Rt. 98, south of Fairview.Corn in the field, near New Castle, Pa. 9 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Gmerrill0516 Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Hope you are doing better...I miss the grill. At this very moment my grill is up to the lid in snow. I couldn't even open the door to the gas bottle without shoveling it out...then it's too cold to thaw meet in it even if you could get it to light up...May is coming!I'd avoid the green ribs...just sayin.Greg 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/38806-pictures-of-the-week/#findComment-277645 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are going to be near that Lowe's again, let me know and I will buy you a cup of joe.Thanks Fred, I don't run 29 a whole lot anymore, just once in a while. Getting through all those 10,000 stop lights between Charlottesville and Ruckersville is a real pain in the butt with a heavy load. I used to stop to eat at that old truck stop that was on the right just north of Ruckersville sometimes, it's closed now, or maybe it's something else. Had a little tire shop out back.When I first saw those things off in the distance I thought it was a roller coaster! Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Green Dash Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I didn't think a POTW thread that was void of Winfall Wimmin could still be so tasty.Shoulda saved the slightly green ribs for St. Patrick's Day. They would've been full green by then. Quote Jim Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/38806-pictures-of-the-week/#findComment-277711 Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Ike Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I went to college in Gettysburg right up the road from Mount St. Mary's. Used to go to the liquor store right off US Route 15 to buy on Sundays.... Also to eat at the Ott House or Stavros Pizza... Or we ran first due with our ladder truck to Emmitsburg as well... Until they bought a tower ladder.... Nothing like running balls to the wall on 15 in the middle of the winter.... You'd freeze your ass off for the first few minutes, nice and warm for the next few minutes, then burning up hot by the time you rolled into town with that detroit in the dog box next to you. 2 Quote Ed Smith1957 B85F 1242 "The General Ike" Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/38806-pictures-of-the-week/#findComment-277744 Share on other sites More sharing options...

other dog Posted February 7, 2015 Author Share Posted February 7, 2015 All the rivets in my tool box door broke last summer, so I got a cordless drill and some screws and fixed it myself in the parking lot at the shop. It only had four rivets in it to begin with. I put six screws in it-The other day I opened the tool box on the headache rack and it almost came off in my hand- only the top rivet was holding the door to the hinge. They fixed it at the shop though- put all of two screws in it.They were supposed to have fixed this one too, all the rivets have come loose, but I guess they figured it didn't need more fixing- I already had a rubber strap on it. I guess the road bounce and vibration breaks the rivets, this door on the passenger side tool box rarely gets opened.I went down to Dillwyn with a van today, picked up a load of Kyanite going to Chester, W.V. Leaving the Mullite plant...in a big cloud of dust. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

other dog Posted February 7, 2015 Author Share Posted February 7, 2015 Old Bill asked me a few weeks ago if I wanted a new leather cap that he got from Trimac. I said "sure, if you're going to throw it out i'll be glad to have it."It came in the mail yesterday- nice cap!Never seen a size adjuster thinga-ma-bob like this-It's way too nice to wear to work, i'll just stick it in the memorabilia cabinet with the other trucking memorabilia stuff in the trucking memorabilia cabinet. He sent me a webcam too, way nicer than the one I have now, but it wouldn't work on my computer. It only worked with Windows XP and older systems. 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

41chevy Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 You put on 3 tin foil hats, the watch cap over the tinfoil hats a Colander on the very top and the web cam on the tippy top on the Colander.
