Like that GMC!

Happy birthday!

Miniskirt junction was the one mentioned in the first comment. I think I know which one you're talking about on I-81, sits on the right when you're going south? If I stop anywhere around Wytheville that's usually where I go. I like the chili burgers there. Last time I came up that way I was really hungry. Started to stop at exit 30 in Tennessee to eat, but said "nah, i'm going up there and get a chili burger"...and when I got there the restaurant was closed, so I went on up to exit 101 and ate at the Huddle House.

1977 F model, 300 5 spd.

I was coming down some mountain on 22, just before you get to 99.

I bought a used '76 Dodge 3/4 ton pickup once for $500. It was yellow like a state truck, had a black hood, but it ran good. Had a 360 engine with a holley carb, edelbrock intake, big cam, and used lots of gas. The transmission case was cracked, but every time I drove it i'd just pour a quart of transmission fluid in it and carry on. I used to load it up with firewood even with the top of the cab and it felt the same as being empty.

naw, but if i'd had any chains with me i'd have put them on when I got on rt. 60 yesterday!

I made two trips to Pa. this week. First I went to Boyers, which is near the middle of nowhere...also near Slippery Rock-sort of. You turn off of rt. 8 onto some other road, go 5 or 6 miles, then turn into a dirt driveway and go back in the woods about 3/4 mile... Looks like you're going to nowhere, then finally you see something. That's the place- gotta pull down towards that dumpster, back around the front of the building, head back out, then back up in front of the door by the dumpster. It was quite chilly in Boyers too.I was not going that fast down their driveway by the way, I was on I-79 here. Now I gotta see if I can make it back up this hill empty. Yup...made it to the highway! Got to go to Greenville and pick up some roll off dumpsters going to Richmond. Heading to Richmond. Some big Mack trucks at S.B.Cox in Richmond. V8 Superliner. 39 baby Mack? Unloading the dumpsters. Then I went to the shop and got a load of crane mats going to Evans City, Pa. Took them right across the road from where I got the overweight ticket a while back. Then headed to McKees Rocks to get a load of steel going back to Lynchburg. It was snowing when I left McKees Rocks, but the road was pretty good down 79 and 19. I decided not to take 39 and 20 from Summersville to Charmco, thought maybe 60 would be better...huge mistake- 60 was horrible all the way to Rainelle. I was spinning trying to get up some hills but I got my pire divider locked in before I started up the mountain, and made it across...smoked 3 packs of cigarettes, and they had to put a new seat in the truck today, but I made it, and didn't throw any tracks off. Finally got to I-64, should be smooth sailing n...never mind. Maybe 220 will be better...not! Unloaded and reloaded in Lynchburg this morning, the mountains are pretty,eh? The two highest ones at the far left are the Peaks of Otter, near Bedford. Liberty University sign on Liberty Mountain. The snow report, and dog feet- Snow on the back porch. Passed through Winfall on the way home of course, but I didn't see anything unusual. Nothing out of the ordinary to be seen in Gladys either.

Amen brother!..Bulldogman,1987.

Amen brother!

Maybe he'll change his mind and want to be a Virginia Tech Hokie!

Kind of boring today, nothing going on. I even rode over to Winfall, but didn't see anything over there either.

yessir, used to fuel there on the Boston runs- ain't been there for years.

nice!

However, in the "overall hotness" category the one one the right is off the chart!..just my opinion.

mine too.

I always grabbed brochures from Goodman Truck and Tractor in Amelia, Va. when I was a kid too. They were the local IH dealer...too bad I have no idea what happened to any of them. Still have a bunch of 60's baseball cards though.

I remember when we used to put diesel fuel in a sprayer and spraying the inside of chip trailers so the chips wouldn't freeze to the sides and stick. Westvaco didn't approve of the practice though, and if they stuck i'd take them back to the woodyard. I wasn't going to get in there and dig with a shovel and grubbing hoe then get back in the back of the line, I got paid by the load anyway.

just some roofies.

I didn't see anything in Winfall, but I did see a couple of poorly photo-chopped girls playing in the water in Norfolk.

Professional logger, exavater, digger, hog hunter,...the list goes on and on.

The p is for "professional".

Not a Pitts girl, but she was at a forestry equipment show.
