I like your "pineapple grenade" bottle!
I think Vicki from Florida got that for us when we were in Florida. It had hot sauce in it originally, I don't know what kind it was but it was orange. I liked the bottle too and kept it and when I was looking for something to put leftover hot sauce in I saw it and the old light bulb came on!

those two abandoned "stores" look more like old gas stations to me.
They probably sold gas too, most country stores did, a long with whatever else you might need. Groceries, clothes, hardware. I remember a lot of old country stores when they were open, and as small as they were they seemed to have a little of everything.

Just in case anybody was wondering, this truck won the slow truck race this year. Wasn't even close!
I've been to Gladys twice this week, we need to get a move on over there so we can sell it. I like to take the back roads all the way. These 2 old stores are at a crossroads along the way. Every time I see an old store like this I wish I could go inside just to look around, and I always wonder what it was like when it was open.
Saw these halloween decorations in a field too.
I pass by this old mill too, i'd also like to take a closer look at this but i've never stopped.
Meanwhile, on the home front i've been processing peppers, making hot sauce and drying a lot for seasoning use.
My old dehydrator quit, so I had to get another one.
When I don't have enough sauce left to fill a fancy new bottle I just pour it in the old grenade bottle, I keep this for myself.
I think i've come a long ways making hot sauce. I've been making it for years, just for a hobby. It gets better all the time, I think anyway. I used to just grind up raw peppers in the blender with enough vinegar to liquify it, then put it in a pot and bring it to a boil, then pour it into bottles- pulp, seeds, and all. I used recycled hot sauce, worcestershire sauce, and little wine bottles to put it in. Now I order new bottles to put it in. I cook the peppers down almost to a mush in the crock pot with vinegar, sea salt, and garlic, then we stick the hand blender thing in there and liquify it, adding more vinegar if needed. Then we strain it before we bottle it, makes a much better sauce I think. I've done about 3 dozen bottles so far, i'm going to make more as soon as more cayennes turn red.
I also filled in about 6 holes in the back yard yesterday. The two underneath the back porch were the biggest ones.
I have an idea how they got there, but I have no proof.

Looks like the day was really nice before it started raining. The line up of Big Horns is impressive. Aside of them there were plenty of pleasure to see trucks.
Thanks Vlad, this lady was driving the orange Big Horn!

Sorry the parking lot is full that day, you'll have to go to the Pilot or the T/A at Exit 7 in New Jersey.

That sucks we have a big antique car show here every year hot August nights you probably heard of it a lot of years it rains and it’s in the middle of August which is usually unusual because it’s mainly 150° here at that time feel sorry for these guys that get their cars all cleaned up and polished and then it rains all over them. That’s sucks.
Yep, like Charlie Tackaberry. He drove that International hauling a Dodge Bighorn down from Canada. Got there Friday, unloaded, then everything was pretty much over with. Long ways to come to get rained out.

We were planning to go to the Dying Breed Diesels Family Reunion in Columbiana, Oh. this weekend but we called and cancelled our motel reservation. The show was only for Saturday afternoon, but we thought it would be a nice drive across the mountains in the fall. But, again, they're saying there's a 100% chance of rain Saturday so we called it off.

Yessir, there were several trucks there this year that I hadn't seen before. Quite a few actually, but overall I think it was the fewest trucks i've seen there. I think I said the same thing last year, but this year I'll blame the weather. There was a 90% chance of rain on Saturday and it did. A lot of trucks were leaving Friday afternoon. We went Saturday morning for just a few minutes and probably half the trucks were already gone.

He also said a brand new wiper motor was $800 and that was 10 years ago. Ouch.!!!!!!!! Bob
holy mackle! On the last truck I drove with air wipers, a '77 F model, I would disconnect the air line going into the motor and pour some air tool oil in it periodically, like you put in an impact wrench. That seemed to help them.

Finally!..about time, but i've been busier than a 3 legged cat covering up doo-doo. Busier than a 1 legged man in an ass kicking contest. Busier than- well, you get the idea.
Y'all know the deal- just click on the picture for more exciting photos.

I was all excited when I saw this truck in the "for sale" lot in Macungie. I thought I'd found the truck I was looking for, a GMC with a 2 stroke Detroit , 6V-53 with a 5 speed and 2 speed rear. Unfortunately, it was just parked there in the unloading area until they parked it.
I already had visions of rolling into the Hellertown Truck Stop in that unit.

When I drove that T660 with the PACCAR engine it went through 2 turbos after it got backed into on the ramp in Pa. that time. The turbo was $6,000 for that engine, but the warranty covered them. Took 2 failures for them to figure out that the pipe in the grill had a hairline crack in it from when the guy backed into me.

I had to get to Winfall to Uber all these hot chicks around, some guy there refused to give them rides.
Well, I would have, but I just didn't have time.

They do that a lot if they are not happy with something I read they use the 55 Chevy in American graffiti for the sound effects. Burt Reynolds, Trans Am they were not happy with the car the way it sounded..
I saw "Hijack" not too long ago. I used to have it on DVD, but I think I loaned it to somebody. Anyway, it's a TV movie from 1973 and sometimes the White Freightliner that David Jansen's character is driving will have a Detroit Diesel and sometimes not. I don't know if they used several different trucks or overdubbed the sound effects.

Excellent must’ve been a pretty swinging time with all those people
We had a great time. It was nice to see everybody, but we really didn't invite any of the "rowdy" friends 🤣.
Man, some of the cookouts I had in Gladys in years past... 😲

I told Zina one time that ''it's too bad I can't figure out a way to convert this hot sauce to cash". But I've always just made it and gave it away. I don't know what would be involved to sell it as far as permits, licenses, inspections, etc. Besides, it gives me something to do.
