Popular Post other dog Posted June 27, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted June 27, 2015 I was looking on the computer for a picture of my pickup to photo chop for research purposes and ran across these. I hadn't biggerized them and read the captions for a long time, thought it was pretty funny, worthy of a re-run. And how about this one- I don't think this particular movie ever got made did it? I need to order the DVD from Amazon if it did. I took some new pictures this week too. This is a dragon fly that was on the ground by my truck. This is a big Mack truck with a load of pulpwood. This is a big Mack truck with a load of chips. This is at Welfer Street and Beechwood Blvd. in Pittsburgh. Site of U.S. Steel's Homestead Works. About the only evidence of it ever being there are the smokestacks. Part of it was on this side too. I loaded beams there once. You can see the Carrie Furnace way in the background,across the river.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrie_Furnace You turned off the bridge to get into U.S.Steel, I loaded over to the left. I think they made beams there and plates on the other side. I was there in the early 80's. This is the door to the offices at Gal-Tech. Road shot, from the toll road between Uniontown, Pa. and Morgantown, W.V. A big pile of wood. Dismantled FWD at the Mead-Westvaco woodyard at Rupert, W.V. Don't know if it's being refurbished or being scrapped. Pretty good picture of this plane for just holding the camera up to the window and snapping without looking. Big machines. Trailer's dog-legging pretty bad! Big motor. 11 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post other dog Posted June 27, 2015 Author Popular Post Share Posted June 27, 2015 Road shots, rt.20 in W.V. Nice Jeep trail down that power line. A Burns' Mack down past this big woodpile. A girl in a car. Saw this girl in Winfall on the way home last night. She appeared to be having mechanical difficulties and tried to flag me down, but it was getting dark so I didn't stop. The rest of the fish story- 9 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have good pizza at the store at the top of the hill though. 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underdog Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Thanks, Tom. I enjoy the pics of western PA and WV as I don't get out that way as often as I did before. Ran steady Pittsburgh and up & down the Ohio River in a former life, mostly placard loads, so no turnpike... Got to know 22, 322, 422 very well with my E7.GreggSent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

41chevy Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 That poor Winfall girl was there for hours trying to put oil in her car but couldn't. Only cap she found didn't say OIL it said L10. Probably still there. She shoulda gone fishin 2 Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Dash Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I like how the photostory comes full circle at the end. Well played.I think the dog-legged trailer is migrating toward something it read on the sign.I would suck as Bo Duke. The first time they asked me to do anything that might harm the car I would be like "uh...yeah...I'll be leaving now." and tear ass outta there with the Charger. 1 Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldogboy Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 If the "Dukes of Hazzard" gets remade do we get residuals for our starring roles? That would look good on my resume, retired firefighter becomes international movie star. Hey, it worked for Steve Busemi, former FDNY, Engine 55. bulldogboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
