other dog

yeah, and I kind of like that old 7400 White, don't see a lot of those any more.

Is this Ted?

This International belongs to Charlie Tackaberry from Canada. They always have great looking trucks in Macungie, and this is one of the prettiest Internationals i've ever seen. This was one of Tackaberry's trucks too. They usually bring a blue Cannonball too, but it wasn't there this time.

You're absolutely right Vlad. I hope you can make it back to Macungie soon. We did have a great time, there were "half nekkid wimmens" (randyp,1984) everywhere Friday, but I didn't get any pictures, because...well, you know. And on Saturday Randy ( 1958 F.W.D. ) had the "tailgate party" which was great, and of course there was all those trucks to see! I'm resizing my pictures now, I take most of mine with my camera and if I don't resize them they take so long to download them. I usually end up cropping most of them while i'm at it too. I told Zina I didn't think they were as sharp this year as usual, but that might just be me. Or it might be that I was walking around with a dog on a leash in one hand, a hotdog in one hand, a drink in one hand, and the camera in one hand. Funny, I don't remember ever seeing this sign before. But I drank this on Friday, and it was delicious with Coke. I had a little "airplane bottle" of it at the tractor pull last week, and it was so good I bought this big bottle and brought it to Macungie.

I need one!

We paid $5 a gallon for gas somewhere on the way home Saturday. I think we were still in Pa. It was $4.37 here over at the Walmart store yesterday, so we filled up again.

Yesterday was hot, around 88 degrees I think, I was walking around sweating. This morning it was 63, cloudy, and windy, with gusts up to 25mph. the weather thingy said. I made fun of Zina for packing a jacket when we left, and this morning I was wishing I had one. I didn't even have a long sleeve shirt, and it was cold with that wind blowing and no sun!

Yes, we missed you too, Zina was wondering if you could make it. I'm not sure on the final count, but it was over 700 the last report I heard. There was still a lot of trucks coming in this morning-

I saw another picture, it was Albanese Asphalt Paving.

No, I do not.

Here's a few from Macungie. I have many more on my camera, I'll put them on Flickr and post a link when I get home. Sticker I bought-

Happy birthday!

I saw this and thought it was a real thing, so I've been doing it every day.

well, that's pretty much my situation. I have a little over $1900 deposited in my account every munt, and by the time you take taxes, insurance, and road expenses out of what I was making, there's not a hell of a lot of difference.

This is sad but true. It saddened me that on the anniversary of D-Day more people on facebook thought that the song "Convoy" was the most significant thing to happen on June 6th. More people were posting about "the dark of moon on the 6th. of June in a kenworth hauling hogs...blah-blah-blah" than they were the invasion of Normandy.

I just happened upon it when I was flipping through the channels on TV a few years ago. Then a couple of weeks ago I watched it from the beginning for the first time. But I googled something about it and ran across some reviews of the movie and most everyone talked about how real it depicted being in a tank crew. I still want to go to the tank museum in Danville, VA.

It's almost time for the 2022 ATCA Show in Macungie, Pa. "The greatest antique truck show on earth"- (Doug Maney, 1987) Just wondering who was going, if anyone. Me and Zina from Gladys are planning to go. Unfortunately, Vicki from Florida doesn't think she'll make it this year.

Oh that's way past my bedtime!

Melons are good. Everybody likes melons. Here are 2 very nice ones-

Well, if I was married to that old- well, she can't understand normal thinking, I'd probably drink too 🤣

That's already happened, I might not drive any more but I watch the truck prices, periodically anyway. They're just like pickup prices, people will drag some worn out pile out of the weeds that hasn't been started in 10 years and expect to get $50,000 for it. It's crazy!

Happy birthday!

Here's someone's personal assistant looking for lost dentures in the back of a car.

Did you ever see the movie "Fury"? It's one of my favorites, Brad Pitt plays a tank commander in WW II in it.

I watch a lot of old westerns, Wanted-Dead or Alive, Have Gun Will Travel, and Rawhide are on in the mornings, then in the afternoon Wagon Train, Death Valley Days, Wyatt Earp, and my favorite- Tales of Wells Fargo- are on.
