View from Ewing's restaurant. I took my better half out for lunch. Very good food (expensive). I can see their neon sign from my place at night. I'm just on the other side of the river. My house is just out of this shot. A big tree blocked it. Couldn't see it.

I love it here. :)

Nice view. Your whole village is blocked out

Western end of the Mt. Airy tunnel, originally built for the B&O mainline. Most people in Mt. Airy don't even know about it (or about it's significance in railroad history). It's the longest railway tunnel east of The Rockies

Tail or no tail?

My German Shepherd's tail is longer than my little Corgi. :lol:

But she is still in charge. I guess size doesn't matter. I keep telling women that but they call BS. :(

My buddy brought me over some firewood in his 54 AD. His grandfather bought it new and the old girl is still hard at work.

Apparently the hand free mode is being used by a blind person. I mean why else would some pull away the tape and not read the do not use sign?

Brings back memories....if they did not get cleaned regularly on a jobsite they got burned to the ground and they cleaned them real regular after that.

Yup, That's the cleanest cookie container I have ever seen.... :)

On the subject of sweets, I made some Peppermint Patties yesterday and the wife made a yummy Lemon Meringue Pie....

Sorry about the chocolate mess. I hadn't transferred them to the clean waxed paper yet.

I think that I just got Diabetes and 2 cavity's looking at those pictures.

I'd be all over that like a one legged man in a hopping contest.

An odd motorhome I saw. It says it's a Clark. Maybe the same as the forklift company. Who knows. But it's cool. This was as close as I could get.

Those Clarks are cool. Low profile and built rugged.

I spotted this camper and took a picture. Was thinking it would be a cool one for behind my '72 K2500

That would definealty look cool behind your 72. :)

I went to my house out in the sticks yesterday and this 90's? shortbed was parked/dumped across the street.

So of course I left a note on it asking if they wanted to sell it. My neighbor came out and I got the story. It's his buddy's truck and apparently he's been fooling around with 2 gals. (You see where this is going) It seems that one gal got very upset and sliced the tires, wrote a bunch of nasty F you stuff all over it, and smashed the windshield and rear window with a hammer. She sounds like my kind of a girl. :lol:

My neighbor gave him one day to get it out. I heard him working on it about 10:00 last night and it was gone this morning. I guess he didn't want to sell it. :lol:

buddy of mine needed to use my trailer so it was time to dig it out and redeck it.. it was in baaad shape.. it's not completely finished but roadworthy to make his haul..

he's moving to Springfield MO where his parents and brother's family moved a few years ago so he's hauling his '69 and some cargo back with it..

https://dl.dropbox.com/s/ayp44uspfpq...55401.jpg?dl=0

sawzall, prybar, and a bigger hammer :hm:

https://dl.dropbox.com/s/cgdrzue0pmh...55966.jpg?dl=0

small world - manager at ganahl lumber that selected my boards, cut the 4 footers and ripped the two skinnies, basically fit the whole deck for me, is also moving to Springfield next month :D

https://dl.dropbox.com/s/a5ghiqjzawv..._5681.jpg?dl=0

couple of notches in the rear angles and copious amounts of belt sanding - voila!

https://dl.dropbox.com/s/8hiqlztldhr...56323.jpg?dl=0

after my buddy gets back and the lumber has dried out a little and sapped out I'll pull the boards for seal and paint - fun project for the kids :)

Looks good!

I just pulled my trailer around front so I could pressure wash it and give it a couple of coats of preservative. I think it makes them last longer.

thank you and great advice I'm going to take this time.. that's a 2003 Carson I bought brand new with brakes on both axles and battery backup emergency break away.. but I requested the deck unpainted so I could apply something clear and a little nicer looking.. well guess what - like an idiot I never put a drop of anything on it..

I've kicked around the idea of using the same products I put on the longhorn bed on the farm.. I actually have some here for my other longhorn but I also have the bed kit for it so more likely paint on the trailer.. my son is insisting I clean up the frame and fenders so anything could happen :hm:

Looks like a nice setup. My small trailer is too light weight to haul much of anything. I think I am going to put it out by the road with a for sale sign on it....

Random shot. I didn't take it, hope it still counts. Me and my dad taken in about 1977. That's my old POS Ranchero in back. My wife says that I have the same smile today....None.

I was not a friendly kid. :lol:

Mine is 5' x 10'. I wanted one narrow as the truck. I originally pulled it behind the '92 K3500 SRW I had. It's a 3500# trailer and has brakes. I have heavier/taller tires on it. The sides are removable. I stashed the ramp and made the tailgate level with the sides. That way I get a tailgate for a 12' deck or can lay longer things across the top. It's a handy versatile little trailer. I have diamond plate fenders I need to get on there, then some paint. I've had it about 25 years
