Popular Post other dog Posted September 13, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 13, 2014 I had just got on I-64 west at Clifton Forge the other day when 3 trucks with fancy paint jobs hauling golf carts with fancy paint jobs passed me.I don't know what this place is in Fairmont,W.V, but it looks important.I saw a big truck hauling an even bigger truck.I saw big trucks hauling a big yellow machines.Even saw a big yellow truck.My reflection-A car with tinted windows...I saw a Mackie the mover on 79 in W.V.Old steerable dolly at the yard...in the weeds. The big ugly rusty thing is the old stove out of the shop.Two coils I brought in from Sharon,Pa.A mower on a trailer.I had to wait for the train to go by in Gladys before I could get home the other night. That's about twice in the last 8 years i've seen a train on those tracks.I found some ripe tomatoes when I got home. I thought the tomatoes were about done for the year but they made a nice comeback. I even found another "mystery melon". This vine was growing where I had the cabbage planted. I didn't even know what it was. I was kind of hoping it was a cucumber vine, but I discovered a good size cantaloupe down under the anti-rabbit defense system in the grass. It's a mystery because I never even planted any cantaloupes....or any on these smooth skinned melons either for that matter.I went to Norcross,Ga. Thursday. Saw this log truck on 85 in North or South Carolina.Big peach ahead in Gaffney,S.C.Here's an older picture of the peach.Gibson's Truck Parts, Cowpens, S.C.Atlanta is a very popular place- all those folks over there are trying to get to it. I've unloaded in Norcross and heading to Newberry,S.C. to get a load of lumber.Saw a polar bear behind a bush along the way.It was very hot and very humid in Newberry.A girl at a gas station. 11 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

other dog Posted September 13, 2014 Author Share Posted September 13, 2014 These wimmen tried to flag me down, but I know they just wanted me to help push, so I didn't stop. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vladislav Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Interesting point about the girls who were looking for some wood...I like the MH and the train and the peach and so on and so on. And I too like to see the part of the world I have never been too. Thanks again.That polar bear is cool. Along my last big trip I also saw the animal. 2 Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brocky Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 TomYou were right near my place as that polar bear is on the corner of US 25 and SC 8 in Ware Place SC.I think Lee Gibson in Cowpens has passed away and his son is not doing much with anything. The brush and weeds have all grown up to the point that you can not see anypart of his lot beside the garage. Must be at least 50 old trucks and tractors in it??Thanks again for your weekly tour of the region. Look forward to it every Saturday.Brocky Quote Brocky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look forward to it every Saturday.BrockyI stopped at the fuel stop at exit 32 to get a sandwich before I went to load and saw a lot of trucks going by on rt. 8 so I decided to take it over to 385 to 26 to get to Newberry. I usually go all the way up to Greenville and get on 385. It was a nice shortcut, probably no quicker but a lot shorter and less traffic. I like to get off the beaten path anyway.

other dog Posted September 14, 2014 Author Share Posted September 14, 2014 I picked this many peppers today to put with the ones already in the freezer. I went ahead and picked the biggest Tabascos too. A couple of them had turned orange and I picked them before, but I don't know if they were going to turn red or not so I went ahead and picked the biggest and brightest ones. And I bit the end off of one and ate it. I don't know how they compare heat-wise with the jalapenos and cayennes, but my tongue is still burning from it.Still got a lot of cayennes on the plants that are still green. Here's the entire crop so far- Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Dash Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 That hi-tech stuff in Fairmont is located on NASA Blvd. I'm sure there's a clue in there somewhere. Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
