I didn't think that was funny. I was thinking "Holy Hamburgers". That sounds like a scene from South Park. 1 Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like an early model - MACK mirrors and rounded foot steps.Early 60s Dodge....looks like the one on Lassie (only stepside).

farmer52 Posted April 7, 2013 Author Share Posted April 7, 2013 Friday morning after breakfast with Mike, I headed west on Old Route 22. On top of Cresson mountain is Cresson Ridge Diesel. The sun was shining so I took this pic of an old Mack sign in front of CRD. If I remember correctly, they were a Mack dealer.

farmer52 Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 Went thru Breezewood today and drove back to the Post House. I took a coupe pics of the closed facility. BTW, it is behind Flying J truck stop (on top of the hill). On my drive I saw a MH612. 2 Quote Ken PRR Country and Charter member of the "Mack Pack" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slpwlker Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 All the times I have been thru Breezewood, I don't remember that one. Seen a bunch of R's on my way to Lancaster though. Anything good to Eat out here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything good to Eat out here?If you are talking Breezewood....NO, just fast food. I was on my way to Lancaster to visit Outback Toys in Lititz. They are having their customer appreciation days (Friday and Saturday). I have never been to Outback and needed a "mental health break". I am going back to Altoona on Saturday morning.I ate lunch at Oregon Farm (north of Lancaster off 222) - lunch stuffit buffit. Anyone near Lititz want to meet for breakfast on Friday or Saturday morning? One (well actually several) place I like is the Litiitz Family Cupboard.

farmer52 Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 Yeah at the super 8. on 30Stayed there a few times. There are a few restaurants to the east of you...Dienner's, Good 'N Plenty, and Hershey Farm. I never cared for Miller's. Good 'N Plenty is family style and has EXCELLENT shoofly pie.I am at the Rodeway Inn in Akron. I started staying here in 2011 when I attended Gerhart's show. The hotel is an old style but clean and quiet. No truck parking but the owner lets me park my MH here. FYI, I don't have my MH with me this trip. I may drive to Gerhart's on Friday and "snoop" around. Quote Ken PRR Country and Charter member of the "Mack Pack" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveigou Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Damn, and I won't be there Friday. Friday is my day over at Pennsylvania Truck Centers (Wrightsville, Pa) along route 30 on the west shore of the Susquehanna river.I'll make sure they let the dogs out at Gerhart's tomorrow. 1 Quote See my Flickr photostream page http://www.flickr.com/photos/96692978@N05/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveigou Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 That's right. If you stop, just stick your head in door and let somebody know your out there. Fridays are pretty quiet around there. Sorry to miss you. Stop over at PTC, I'll be in and out of there all day, maybe you'll catch me.
