Popular Post other dog Posted September 2, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted September 2, 2016 This week I went to Muskogee, Oklahoma with a load of beams. I left Saturday, and when I got to the shop I thought Abilene had opened a terminal there. I saw a girl in a car on 81 somewhere. I stopped at exit 288 on 40 in Tn. for my mandatory 30 minute break. This is the ice box outside the truck stop. They have a big smoker there too, you can see a little of it behind that picket fence, past the ice box. This GMC was parked out back there too along with this International. Both of them had "for sale" signs on them. I saw a shiny pyramid in Memphis. Then I crossed a bridge over a pretty good size river. 11 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Popular Post other dog Posted September 2, 2016 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 2, 2016 I hadn't gone very far across the bridge when I saw a diesel cop with a big truck pulled over. Then I saw a girl in a car. After I delivered in Muskogee I went to Blytheville, Ar. to load for Emporia, Va. Saw these trucks getting loaded in the field. I even saw green combines with blue grain heads, I don't know what that was all about! Following the forklift at Nucor-Yamato in Blytheville. I hit it lucky- got loaded 2 hours before my appointment time! When I left there I crossed back over the same big river. 10 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Popular Post other dog Posted September 2, 2016 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 2, 2016 When I got back into Tennessee I saw some kind of wild aminal by the road. I rode east until my hours were up, and pulled into a parking area to sleep. When I got up the next morning I thought I was at the Abilene terminal. Going east on I-40, almost to N.C. Approaching the first tunnel. That's a bypass road on the right, in case they have to close the tunnel for some reason. In the tunnel... Approaching the second tunnel- In the tunnel- Saw this before I got to Greensboro- 11 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Outbehindthebarn Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Why are so many Generals set-up as wreckers.... Bisons too... Bisons are a rare sight, but I'd have to say that better than half of the Bisons I've seen are wreckers. Any answers?

Yes I did- if they're not actually on the phone, it's laying right there on their leg where they can reach it instantly. Yes, I did get a long weekend, I unloaded in Emporia Wednesday morning and went up to Petersburg and loaded a 50' load going to Houston. I haven't done anything since, i'll leave Sunday for Tuesday delivery in Houston. I'll have a backyard barbecue tomorrow, everybody come on over! 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Popular Post RedBullDog Posted September 2, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted September 2, 2016 The blue heads on the Deere combines are Shelbourne-Reynolds stripper heads. It uses a high speed rotating drum with triangle shaped teeth to pull the grain from the plant without cutting off the straw. The only thing going through the machine is grain and seed hulls, so the combine can operate faster and leave the residue intact for no-till. They have been around for years and are really useful in down wheat. I ran one for a couple of years in my past life. 4 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/46673-pictures-of-the-week/#findComment-344372 Share on other sites More sharing options...

And OD was in rice country so it makes sense.. And in ARK they still field burn a lot of the rice straw.. 2 Quote Brocky Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/46673-pictures-of-the-week/#findComment-344380 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyT Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 "The gorge" is beautiful except at 3am in the fog! 1965, have you ever stopped at Flicks restaurant in Potts Camp ms? On 78 east of Memphis. Good little family owned t.s. O.D. When did Yuengling start making sausages,hope they're as good as their beer! Lol We are having a tropical storm here,Called Hermione, pronounced Her...Mine. Power was off from 0338 til 1100 had to heat water for instant coffee on the "Barbie" I'm spoiled since we got the Kuerig coffee maker! For some unknown reason my wife prefers instant. She's cheap to feed! Brocky, I noticed the same thing about the girls and their ever present cell phones! Statistically talking on the phone while driving is as dangerous as driving drunk! Texting,even worse! Down here they are both " secondary offenses" That means to get a ticket you have to be pulled over for something else at the same time! Thanks electronics lobby! My pet peeve!

Popular Post other dog Posted September 2, 2016 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 2, 2016 So, I browned those sausages in a coated, non-stick skillet, just like the instructions said. After they were brown on all sides I poured half a Yuengling in the pan and let them simmer for 15 more minutes. The instructions said to simmer them in water, so I figured a Yuengling had to be better. Then I set them aside, with the fried potatoes and onions, poured the Yuengling out, and browned some peppers and onions a little bit. Then I added them to the skillet of potatoes, onions, and sausage- It was very good- maybe better than scrapple. 5 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.
