Thanks Boog!....I might add those Chevy Bowtie's on his neighbors garage doors housed a 69 Z28 Camaro and a 70 LS6 Chevelle.
Both very nice correct restorations, he has since moved and sold them both.

Steve, ( that guy on the boom) said to me the other day,
“I can’t believe we first did this together, almost 30 years ago”

What truck was used back then? Big trees. I bet that takes heaps of water to get established. I know olives do like arid

This is how things work today. You took the picture through outsourcing.

I never got the big stickers on garage doors and enclosed trailers stating "Nice stuff inside!". Huge Harley emblems on enclosed trailers sure cancel out a lot of the security by letting people know this is the one you want to hit. Now the effort seems worth the goal. Same with cars parked safely behind yet another closed garage door. When you are out in them people get to see you and your car. Then you go home, pull it in and close the door!

Random pic of my crappy old boat.

I caught a lot of catfish in that old girl.

I should sell it. It just sits in the yard lately. But I never sell anything.

The fish don't stand a chance with three generations on them. I see a little man when I see your grandson

You sold the '31 Ford

Castleman River Bridge on the National Road (before US40) in Grantsville, MD. Completed in 1815. A whole lot of feet, hoofs, and wheels have rolled over that bridge. I remember you could still drive across it when I was a kid



I took this picture back in '31 for comparison

Here is a model boat I made for a guy down in Louisiana. All carbon fiber. This is the 5th one I've done this year.

Yea it's pretty fun. You get to do good hard racing without hurting yourself.

I have had the same experience with my son. I don't give him anything anymore. It took three different vehicles before I learned.

My biological father offered us a 2 yr old car (demonstrator). I didn't ask for anything; he had tracked me down 40+ years later. I happened to mention on the phone one day that I thought maybe we should find a car that used less gas than our Suburban and pickup. My half sister later told me that he had given my half brother a new Corvette in HS or college, and that junior went out and wrecked it and my dad gave him another one, which he went out and traded for another brand.

Now my dad and half brother in law are gone but the half sister and her mother are mad at me for some reason. Junior was never happy about me, but now I don't have anything to do with any of them anymore. Sad about the nieces and nephew, though - they seemed nice.

We still have the little 14 yo Chevy but I think we are going trade it in this year just because it has to sit about half the year because the roads get so muddy and slick.

Years ago I gave my son a 68 long bed. About a year later he needed some money so, I bought it from him.

Yeah, but not perfect. After all I did let that Nova get away.

Just came back from a walk with my honey. Dogwood in our front yard in bloom. Neighbor down the street has roses living in his tree. Hmm, pictures of course looked better on my phone=)

Multiflora rose is obnoxious everywhere. We planted it as a gov't soil conservation program to create windrows and habitat. That program got cancelled when they saw what a mistake it was. Between the wind and birds that stuff would cover the earth if it wasn't for mowing and cultivation (and goats).

That neighbor needs to look around the yard a little more often. That's an invasive volunteer they neglected to pull up that's been growing into that tree for years. It is providing seed for all the baby multiflora rose to spread all around.

I stuck this dogwood in the ground a while back. It didn't put out full blooms this year. A lot of trees started out funny this year
