  1. I saw an H model in Amelia too, but didn't see it in time to get a picture. It is visible in the google earth street view though.
  2. I saw some barbecued chicken last weekend. I saw a blue Mack on the scales in Petersburg too. and another Mack over there on the other scale. it was very hot in Petersburg- it was actually only in the 90's, but sitting in that loading area it was this hot! Motorcycle accident in West Virginia. The Wal Mart truck was involved, don't know if the bike came around the curve and ran into the back of it or just what happened. Saw the goats again. Over the mountain, rt. 48 west of Moorefield, W.V. You can see the smoke from the power plant in Mt. Storm in the distance. They should have the last stretch of 4 lane open soon, but now you still have to get off at rt. 93, take it down to rt.42, turn right, and start climbing that 4 mile 10% grade. steep ramp down to 93 too. the 4 lane will eventually cross 42 just to the right of the smoke from the power plant, at the notch in the hill. it'll probably take me 30 minutes or more to get there from where i'm at. Random road shot, heading east on I-80, just west of Clearfield, Pa. Chipping operation in N.C. Tunnel on I-77 at the Va./W.V. line. When I was coming back from Oakvale W.V. some girl tried to get me to stop. I thought she was going to step out in front of the truck. I never slowed down. Construction on I-81 between Christiansburg and Roanoke. When I got back to the shop I helped Jeffrey pick grapes off the pine tree. He's gonna make wine out of them. Then on the way home I saw this girl in Winfall. I think she might have been stuck, but i'm not sure. I never even slowed down.
  3. ...entirely different reference...
  4. I'm surprised nobody asked if the carpet- well, never mind,i'm not going there either.
  5. there's an ATHS shown in Lincolnton,N.C. next month. I'll have to check the exact date, it used to be the last of July-first of August but they changed the date this year, probably thinking it would be cooler. I usually went to that show, but i'm thinking maybe i'll go to the one in Winchester, Va. this year instead. It's in September also, the 20-22nd I think.
  6. Vlad's a heckuva wheel man!
  7. Are y'all in the old Smith's terminal? That place is huge,several companies use that old terminal, pretty sure Con-Way's in there,amongst others. Used to not run 60 across Hawk's Nest without seeing Smith's Transfers going both ways. I'd usually be in their way, they were hard to keep up with,they could run that mountain!
  8. thanks!
  9. Wow! me too.
  10. random thought- what if freightrain won the lottery- would he by driving around in something like this? I went over to the Winfall car wash today, where they do a hand wash job on your car, but it was too busy and I got scared and left without even getting the pickup washed. The Winfall Champion Female Karate Team just happened to be there though, I got to meet them. Folks were argying and trying to cut in line... The owner was doing the best she could to maintain order... but her overworked employees were feeling the pressure ...even with as many as 3 people washing one car they could barely keep up. when 2 girls tried to get in front of me after i'd been waiting a good 5 minutes I just decided to leave.
  11. yeah, and plant some tomatoes in it.
  12. I saw them in concert twice I think, in the late 70's and right after Hotel California came out. I like their Greatest Hits 71-75 album best, lots of good songs. I've heard Hotel California on the radio so much if I hear it start now I change the station.
  13. yepper, i'm outta likes too.
  14. yes, it was. a lot of the old trucks would come by and sound like they were struggling, even empty, and that Superliner just came easing on by.
  15. actually...well...I like a wild and natural beaver myself...just my opinion.
  16. "take it easy"
  17. me too, i'm taking the high road- "bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz..."
  18. that's it- Eagles!
  19. I love it when a plan comes together, and nothing catches on fire- unless it's supposed to.
  20. Great pictures there Vinny, I'm still out of likes (???), but I like the silver and maroon cabover, and the green and yellow unit!..thanks, good job!
  21. holy mackerel, brake check!!
