excellent!

I've ridden in a convertible but never drove one either. I have however driven a Peterbilt.

I've never been on a ferris wheel, roller coaster, or any kind of ride at the fair.

Forgot this picture I took Thursday. Don't know where to put Kawasakis so i'll just stick it here in case anyone's interested. This belongs to Tom, who works in the shop. He wants to sell it. Last year he said he wanted to trade it for a small Kubota tractor. It's a '96 or '97 model, 16,000 miles on it, said he wanted $3500 for it. I don't know much about it except it's a nice looking bike and he takes really good care of it.

I put Sta-Bil in my lawnmower,tiller,and the gas can in the fall. The mower had sat unused since last fall and it started on the first pull yesterday.

oh...OK

what, the truck or Olive's wife? you can't talk about her like that!

Thank you, my favorite picture!..good choice by the way- hot dogs. I like her super-awesome buns best.

Probably stopped there. There was a truckstop just across the line a little ways after you came out of New York where I stopped some, don't know if that's the one. But like Mark said, truckstops are so few and far between in that part of the world they're all crowded.There was one just east of Hartford but you could never get in there. I'm glad I don't run that way any more. I'd do 3 trips a week from Lynchburg to Boston in the 80's. Unless you happened to get checked somewhere you didn't even try to log the second trip, just the first and last.

I always kinda liked the breakfast buffet at Petro, but I seldom stop at any. I try to stay out of truckstops period,except for a few where I stop to fuel and shower. I did go to some truckstop in Kingdom City before, but I don't remember the name. It wasn't one of the common big name stops like you see now. We used to deliver kyanite to a couple of places in Mexico,Mo. and used to have to go down rt. 54 to Kingdom City to some truckstop after we unloaded to trip lease loads coming back east.

website says it's a '77, $12,500. All the info there was.

ok,i'll take a look.

got any scraper pictures?..they're Randy's favorite.

tomorrow is Joe Slabotnik's birthday- happy birthday Joe!..ha-ha!

I'm always late so i'll wait 'til tomorrow to say happy birfday.

pretty neat! Is that you standing by it?

Nice logging history story there.

I went to youtube and selected the video, then up at the top where has the website name-where it says "http://bigmacktrucks..." here- left click on it,it turns blue,then right click on it and when the box drops down click "copy". Then when you're replying in a post right click at the end,when the box drops down just click "paste", and there it is.

I used to say "there's only one Pilot in the United States with plenty of parking...and nobody knows where it is". But really, the only ones that do have a half decent parking lot are the ones that used to be Williams.

me neither. here's one-

I thought they all had kinfolk in West Virginia.

There were 3 V8 Superliners sitting in Roanoke for a long time, looked a lot like this one. I heard that a man had them on a beer haul, then lost the haul so he sold the trucks. But they sat for probably 10 years or more with "for sale" signs in the windshields. I used to pass by them all the time going to the concrete pipe place, way off the beaten path in Roanoke. They were over across the tracks from Roanoke Electric Steel. Last time I looked on street view only one was still parked there. Here's the street view pics. I put the street address in the second one. I'd bet that's one of those 3 trucks, paint looks similar. All 3 were painted the same, had V8's with 10 speeds in them.

that's what you should have on the door of your sidewinder!

he said beaver...I thought...never mind...

Lee-Hi is T/A now, if I stop around that area that's where I go. We have a fuel account at Lee-Hi too, so we don't have to use the comdata card, so nothing has to match...
