Yesterday the light for me had just turned green. Started and heard a loud crash . Guess the guy didn’t notice traffic was stopped . He went right under the blue car

In the gazebo at the rental home . The annoyed one must be female

How do you not notice traffic stopped dead in the road if you are you are looking at the road? Or notice the color of the traffic light? Or notice the movements all around? Takes a terrible driver. One with bad driving habits, you know, like looking ahead as you drive? Seems important and at least for a little while I think this driver will agree!

Mid twenties driver . Guy was most likely on his phone I’m just glad he hit the other car as he would have most likely hit me I know it sounds selfish but it’s true

Better those two crash-safer vehicles than you getting t-boned in your truck!

Your right , he would have gone right under the K20 not good like putting a wedge under a block I’m sure my rocker would have been in his windshield

Does that truck have saddle tanks? Always a concern in a t-bone accident. Now that my truck isn't towing a travel trailer long distance (I bought a motor home) I'm leaving those tanks empty.

All square body pickups had saddle tanks

But they are inside the frame rails, right? With a left/right switch for the gauge?

Outside of the rails. Partially protected by the cab rocker panel. T-bone still not good... unless on a plate with a steak knife.

I'll be dogged! And yes, t-bones from the grill to my plate is the way to go!

Deutschland in my driveway.

Side impact never good, gas tanks or not. Big media-created false scare on those some years ago.

A class action lawsuit as well. I remember getting letters on that because I owned a 77 GMC at the time. Bet it was great for the lawyers.

Getting the barbeque fired up and looking at the mail. Not sure I'd trust their pizza oven!

**special-K** · 06-06-2023, 06:19 AM

I can't imagine how bored with nothing to do I'd have to be to consider going to a seminar on how to get cremated. And I like pizza! Seems like a poor location to choose for this topic

I don't see the problem. Just chuck grandma in with the pepperoni and sausage.

Smoke from the Canadian fires is real bad here . It’s hanging very low and you can smell it . Yesterday at 4 pm

72c20customcamper · 06-07-2023, 08:59 AM

But it does make for spectacular sunsets

I don't watch the news anymore and when I walked out this morning here in MD it looks about the same as your pictures. I thought something local was on fire until I saw someone else on fb talking about it. Must be a good sized fire

**FleetsidePaul** · 06-08-2023, 02:37 AM

My friend gave me this skeleton hand bottle opener. I like it and Pacifico doesn't twist off. It works for me. That Pacifico is good stuff.

The ugly old counter is next on the chopping block. I just need to finish all the other stuff around here before I rip up something else. It's days are numbered.
