Popular Post other dog Posted May 10, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted May 10, 2015 I would have been here sooner, but I went to see my mother today. Took a picture of a green bug while I was there-and this frog-The old cloud factory doesn't look nearly as impressive this week...looks kind of puny,eh? (that's Canadian)Areva trailer at the shop.Another big load of logs in W.V.I encountered this situation just west of Nettie, W.V. on rt.39 Sunday. Had to wait over 2 hours while they replaced a pole. They were detouring all the 4 wheelers around, but the man said you couldn't get through there in a truck.A Celadon truck hauling big rolls of paper had turned over early Sunday morning in this curve and took the pole out. That's some dangerous stuff to haul.I was still in the Freightliner Sunday, but back in the KW when I took the last two pictures on Wednesday.Big-ass rock truck on top of that hill over yonder.A sign on a barn on rt.522 just north of Winchester, Va.A girl in a car.Back-up girl in a car picture, in case the first one was no good.Sitting in the pipe line at Griffin Pipe.Loading pipes on the truck in front of me.This is where I took the pipes in Claysville, Pa.- right across that 10 ton bridge.Then I went to Galv-Tech in Pittsburgh to load 5 coils going to Lynchburg...had to wait behind this guy screwing around trying to get his shit together before I could get loaded...I didn't even know you could use blankets instead of rubber pads under the coils, or i'd have been doing it all along.Chains on the front and rear coils, just straps on the others.And here's a man lowering a block of whatever those blocks are into a hole where it melts and coats the steel, then it goes up into the ceiling somewhere, where something else happens. Then it comes back down towards the far end of the building....see? I know all about the steel industry.And here we have a truck that Jeff was thinking about buying for me- he said maybe I wouldn't tear the rear end out of this one, but he's still trying to figure out how to get the 5th. wheel height down to an acceptable level.A girl in a car- with back-up picture. 7 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Popular Post other dog Posted May 10, 2015 Author Popular Post Share Posted May 10, 2015 I also saw this dinosaur when I was at the old Jarrell's Truckstop the other night. It's right across the street from King's Dominion.Jo got me a nice T-shirt.Saw a Mack place on rt. 22 in Pa. I went that way because the scales were open on 79, and I had over 48,000 lbs. on. It's a nice ride across there anyway, except for the 48,000 stop lights.Saw this big Mack truck too.Did I get this one?..darn Yuenglings...Another girl in another car. 4 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

When it gets better i'll delete pictures like this and only keep the good ones and won't need the back-ups! Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

other dog Posted May 10, 2015 Author Share Posted May 10, 2015 Where's the Canadian cloud factory locationThat's a power plant that's somewhere between rts. 22 and 422.

alex g Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 I'm guessing without looking at a map that's Nanticoke we don't produce any more clouds there thanks to our government anti coal green energy plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just like to practice speaking Canadian sometimes so I can stay fluent. 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

other dog Posted May 10, 2015 Author Share Posted May 10, 2015 Gripping.I hope that guy is wearing a pink hardhat for breast cancer awareness and not because he likes the color.By the way he was strutting around, I would tend to believe he just liked the color...but I could be wrong. He used what appeared to be moving blankets under the coils- supposed to use rubber pads- and more moving blankets for chain protectors. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Look forward to your pics every week!No, no, no, "puny" is not Canadian- the "eh" at the end is Canadian. I learned how to speak Canadian from Kyle Petty. He was covering a race in Canada once and he said just say "eh" after everything, and you're speaking Canadian. Easy enough, eh? 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.
