DISASTER IN THE MARITIMES

DID YOU EVER HAVE A BAD DAY AT THE OFFICE?

Old Bill-Canadian trucking-check out thedieselgypsy-my photos.

He's my truckin' hero...Paul VanScott runs a close second. I've read all of Old Bill's stories,and talk to him on Skype every weekend...all because I sent him an e-mail once and told him he was the greatest truck driver ever...which he is,in my opinion-Paul VanScott runs a close second.

uh...I'm not tootin' my own whistle...or maybe I am-but he has a lot of my stuff on his site too!...oh,since you asked-all the truck show pictures from Winchester,Troutman,Greensboro,Truckers at Work-Tom Blackwell,guest photos-Tom Blacwell,and "How You Got Started in Trucking"-Tom Blackwell

Hey Paul:

Now I see the reason for driving over the Grand Island bridges on your way to Canada! No, the big green Mack is still in CT but we'll have it here shortly. That local local meeting in Batavia is Aug 3 and I hope to bring something to the show but I don't know what yet. Hope to see you there. By the way, pics of the 1950 LJSW posted in the gallery. Let me know what you think.

Best regards,

THANKS ALOT THATS WHAT I THOUGHT BUT I WASNT SURE!! IS ANYONEL ELSE GOIN OR TAKIN THEIR TRUCKS??

I don't think anyone is thinking about NOT going. See the discussion thread on the show under Todays Topics but go back 3 months and look for the posting on April 20 by Doug Maney.

Regards,

John

It's June 14-15; download the show poster at [url="http://www.antiquetruckclubofamerica.org/. It's right on the home page.

Best regards,

Paul:

Scan them. If you don't have a scanner, send the photos to me and I'll scan them and return them to you along with a CD with the scanned photos on it.

Regards,

John

Yes, I have Skype and I do read your blog from time to time. Did you ever get your computer display problems sorted out??

Best regards,

John

Paul:

I also like the idea of having the complete history of a truck. Once the history with photos are put together into a kind of storyboard along with some aspect of the restoration, it gives the vehicle a life of its own and it's something that makes quite an impact on those folks who grew up seeing and listening to those trucks and drivers. Best of luck!
