Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
I had a chance to buy a Crosley pickup. The guy had taken it all apart and did all the bodywork. And he did a really good job. But he had lost interest and it was at his mom's house and she wanted it gone. He was practically giving it away dirt cheap. The "Get it out of here" price.
But I lived in an apartment. I had nowhere to put it. So I had to pass. The story of my life. Great deal. No space. ![]()

Hey, I just realized Chevyland's wishes for this thread are being sidetracked. I did take the first Crosley picture, though. Looky what I took last summer. I drove by this place on my way in to pick up a load of cinder block I bought. Stopped in on my way out for a sandwich. It was a great experience, so I stopped in the other two trips. Star Tannery, VA in the foothills of the mountains Here's their post office A weekender cabin along the way out from picking up the block

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
A few from Thanksgiving. This is near Dadeville, AL and Lake Martin. The tower was on a hiking trail we hit that morning. In the second photo you can see what's left of the original District office shown in the story board in the last picture.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Crosley made fridges too ,, my folks had one that lasted for 40 years
The Crosley brand title went from existence 1956 until revitalized by the new Crosley Corporation starting in 1976. Powel Crosley, Jr., an American inventor and businessman, initially started selling Crosley appliances in 1930. He made cars and consumer products, such as radios, before his firm went out of business from the 1950s because of insufficient profit.

![]() ![]() You just picked up quite a few dollars there. Not to mention the civic duty of saving many tires from an early demise

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Screen shot seems when I had the stitches in my left hand November 28th someone in the hospital tested positive a few days later . I had a rapid test done Tuesday the first just before my right hand surgery on Wednesday the 2nd . Not even knowing I had been potentially exposed.

I saw Mr P and thought I had done something wrong again.
![]() That's what my students and work folks called me. Too many letter follow that for them to remember my real name.
