Popular Post other dog Posted January 12, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 12, 2022 I was going through some old pictures and found these that i'd never gotten around to posting anywhere. They're from a local antique power show that they no longer have, but there's some nice looking old cars, trucks, and tractors there, including my old B 53 mixer. 9 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Popular Post GA_Dave Posted January 14, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 14, 2022 Back when I was a kid, I had a buddy whose Dad drove a black '64 T-Bird hardtop, similar to the one above. Fifty-some years later, my old buddy is a country music singer and still has his Dad's T-Bird! 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/69054-pictures-of-the-week/#findComment-487017 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you going to be in Leesburg FL next month?? I think so Brocky, we were planning to go but we can't plan too far ahead nowadays, Zina's mother isn't doing too good, my mother isn't doing too good. But we are certainly going to try to make it. I think Dave is going, and they're going to bring some trucks down from the museum. I'm looking forward to it, we haven't been anywhere in a while...anywhere. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Popular Post other dog Posted January 14, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 14, 2022 Here's some more pictures that I just put on flickr, these are from 2009. I loaded some steel beams at Nucor-Yamato in Blytheville, Ar. and took them to Payallup, Wa. Then I reloaded some wooden crates in Seattle, that's where the yellow Western Stars were, and took them to Houston. Then I loaded more beams in Midlothian, Tx. going to Milton, Pa. There are some pretty nice pictures of the great northwest there. I took all these with the very first didital camera I ever had, just a small 7.1 megapixel Kodak. The first time I ever saw Mt. Rainier was on this trip, the big mountain in the distance after I crossed the Columbia river. There's a Frito's truck just ahead of me in the picture. And that was about the only time I saw it. It was much closer to Payallup but it was so foggy when I was there you couldn't see very much. I thought the Anaconda smoke stack was neat too, it was huge, nearly 600 feet tall. This trip was in January and I still thought Montana was the prettiest plce i'd ever seen. I always wanted to go back in the summer and see it when everything was nice and green, but of course that never happened. 2 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

70mackMB Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Other Dog, Thank you for the pictures of all the more reason to travel the Great USA when l retire next year. Picture #1783 is the way l would like to do it in the next year or so. I'm pretty sure it won't happen as l thought it would go as planed. l don't think (l know for sure, maybe an R model) the Mrs would not stand a coast to coast trip in the MB!! LOL! Pix 1747 is a good example why led lights suck in my option. And l don't know why we on the east coast can't do "Mountain Doubles" on our larger multi lane roadways. .....Hippy Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/69054-pictures-of-the-week/#findComment-487207 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brocky Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 My wife and I went to the ATHS National show in Yakima Wash. It was our first time to the Pacific Northwest. Ran all back roads west of the Mississippi river. Went from Yakima down to the Redwood forest in the north west corner of Calif then back north on US 101 along the coast to Above Seattle to get on the ferry for Alaska.. Then back home on land!! 1 Quote Brocky Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/69054-pictures-of-the-week/#findComment-487274 Share on other sites More sharing options...

They bring back memories of the many places I have been to, but never carried a camera😨.. I know Brocky, I just started taking a lot of pictures in the later part of my career. I took a load out to a campground near Mt. Rushmore one time and didn't even have a camera, so I stopped along the way and bought 3 or 4 disposable cameras. You had to send them off to get the film developed. The pictures were pretty good though, they held up decent. I had an old Polaroid camera way back when, but the film was very expensive, and the pictures did not hold up well at all- not that they were that great to start with anyway. I think I got that first digital camera around 2007 or 2008, and I took a picture of everything I ever saw after that 🤣. If you check the rest of my Flickr photos, I have over 10,000 pictures there now, including an album of Mack Trucks. 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

And I remember that camper, I'm pretty sure I posted that picture here and said I saw Rob on vacation, because he always gave me a hard time because I drove a Peterbilt.

other dog Posted February 3, 2022 Author Share Posted February 3, 2022 I see I have duplicates of trucks i've driven, I'll remove some. It's hard to keep track of all the pictures, the only way they're organized is by the date, and if I save a difference version, or edit, or resize, or rename a picture they're all on the computer somewhere, and they all get jumbled up somewhere somehow. I've been going through pictures on the computer and editing a lot, that's why I was posting some on Flickr. And I have deleted several hundred pictures already. Gives me something to do on snowy and rainy days too. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.
