other dog

I wonder if Rob... has abandoned us?..yes, I believe he has.

Not much this week- the wild bruin was the high point of the week as far as pictures go. But everybody likes pictures, so heres a few exciting ones I took- like these big pipes in Pa. and this whirlwind in the parking lot this truck had just left the yard Friday morning when it was rear ended by a 4 wheeler dogs out for a ride on 501 amber waves of grain in Gladys.

I like spotted owls, that's good eatin'!

I had a couple scouts, and a couple of scout II's. This one had a chevy engine and trans. though.

Bet the drivers loved that plan. Like the drivers of a small local company in Appomattox liked their owner in the 80's when he would buy brand new F-models with 300s in them and park them in a field for a year before he put tags on them, meanwhile they were driving older 237 F-models that you could look through the floorboard and see the road.

low 20's sounds pretty quick for a truck, don't know if my ranger could beat them. I thought about you the other day Larry, there's a nice looking solid black 64 Ford for sale up around Bedford. Looked like yours except for the huge blower motor sticking through the hood part.

I've been with Gulfway for years, I think it's 4 hundred and some dollars a year for cement mixer truck.

water!

Here's a real CDL question- If CDL holder Mark left Syracuse at 9:15 headed to Charlotte with a load of fruit punch, and CDL holder Greendash left Washington at 11:00 headed to Cumberland with a load of general freight, what time will randyp stop for lunch?

I know this one! 1.extra cookies 2.drinks 3.food 4.snacks 5.cigarettes

my son posted a picture of him on facebook with his phone, and he put a long black line over his pee-pee that said "censored". I don't know how they do all that stuff with a cell phone, I can barely call folks on mines. He's wearing the gloves I got for him already!

I went to Oakland, Md. yesterday with a load of treated lumber. I was talking to Big Jim on the phone when I went through Troutville on rt. 220- that's where I should have gotten on 81 north up to Broadway. When I realized where I was, I was almost to Eagle Rock- too late to turn back now. I didn't want to take 64 east all the way back to Lexington and get on 81, so I just took 42 up to 39 and over to 220, and ran it all the way to Petersburg, W.V. That's a little better than staying on 220 and going through Covington, Hot Springs, and Warm Springs. I pulled over at a big wide spot by the creek, that's where I saw a raccoon. Then this morning I was headed to Pittsburgh after I left Oakland and saw this black bear crossing the road. Almost missed getting the picture, I was scrambling to get my camera and it went off prematurely, but fortunately the bear was in the picture.

7lbs. 4 ounces, 20 inches I think-not sure on the length.

thank you.

yessir, little Graham was born today. I've got grand daughters but he's the first grandson. He was only a few minutes old when I took this, still nekkid. Hey Rob, Graham wanted me to ask if Kinley was into younger men...

Thank you...yep- it's one of my favorites.

picked another one today- had it for supper, with the biggest T-bone I could find, along with some new potatoes I dug, fried with an onion I pulled.

My wife was a beautiful redhead. Gone almost 7 years now. This was taken at the Charlotte Motor Speedway, late 80's probably.

Speaking of "International meet Mack", I was looking for a picture yesterday in one of my books and just happened to notice this. Looks like a Mack bulldog on this International. Seen the picture many times but never noticed the bulldog until yesterday. Pictures didn't really come out too good.

OK, here's the full size real picture of it still attached.

you got it, not a problem. yes, around here everybody was always shooting for tomatoes by the 4th. of July, that was always peak combining season too. The wheat field just up the road here looks like it'll be ready to combine any day now. A week or so ago when I left it was still green, when I got back it was almost completely golden brown, in a week! Wait a minute, I should have known- that tomater was attached to the stem this morning, I suspected you would doubt me, so here's a picture to prove it!

I know what you mean, I couldn't have anything until I put a chicken wire fence around the garden- rabbits and squirrels would eat everything as soon as it came up. I've got 2 peach trees, an apple tree, a cherry tree, and a pear tree and have never eaten any fruit off any of them, the squirrels eat them off the tree before they even get ripe, and the rabbits get the ones that fall on the ground.
