Kirkland Ranch truck show years ago. Fantastic location for a show! Couple more pics.

[special-K]

Thanks for sharing. The owners of Kirkland Ranch are certainly truck people. Looks like a great local show of a good variety of quality vintage iron. Looks like they have a fine small fleet of yeller classics. Now I realize they host the ATHS Central Cal Chapter show. Probably one of the finest collections of all the chapters

Two weeks ago we had our 16th Tri-State show, four chapters. It probably takes four chapters from back here to cover the area the Central California Chapter covers. It should be called the Four state show since WVA doesn't have any chapters but the state line is not much more than a mile from the show. The nearby WVA guys belong to the Shenandoah Chapter. It's a 300+ truck show.

This was my favorite. This feller came from Louisiana, about 10 miles from the TX line near I-10. I'm sure glad he made the trip! Mighty fine job he did on it




Mighty fine Peterbilt Bullnose


And early Chevy Cabover


I took over 100 pictures at that show

Yes mozzarella cheese. No meat just veggies

Where's Kirkland ranch? It looks like a cool show.

Outside of Plymouth. Beautiful place! I think they renamed the show and it has moved. It out grew the old setting I've been told.

One more of the "business" side of that engine.

Some pictures of a Tornado that touched down about 20 miles from us. It did so much damage and yet some stuff wasn't even touched. The factory in the pictures was destroyed but yet a good friends house is just across the street and not even a bush was out of place. Not even any debri in the yard.

Thanks, I've never been to an antique truck show. I guess it's time I find one and go. Looks like fun.

I am by no means a vegetarian but veggie pizza is my favorite. That one looks great.

When my wife and I first stated dating. The first time she came over to my place she brought a veggie pizza and was apologizing because she knew that I was big into barbecuing and smoking meats at the time.

I kept telling her that it was my favorite but she thought I was just saying that to make her feel better. But she found out later that I wasn't kidding. I prefer pizza with no meat. Just one of my weird quirks. For instance. I love bacon and I love hot dogs but I don't like bacon wrapped hot dogs. Weird.

Yeah. Meat doesn't go down like it used to. It's a drag.

I love steak. But it's not loving me lately.

[special-K]

I moderate the meats voluntarily in hopes of avoiding having a doctor tell he I have to cut any of them out. Same with all the known dietary pleasures now known to be not the best for our health.

[Steeveedee]

I got that high cholesterol talk many years ago from my doctor. I'm lucky in that I can still eat steak, even if it is only 2 -4 times a month. Hamburgers? If I have to restrict my red meat intake, they are goners! Now, after many years of a low saturated fat diet, ham and pork chops make me sick. I can eat spare ribs, barely, and they used to be my favorite meat. I still manage to gag down a little bacon, now and then!

Couple of shots from a ride I went on earlier this Summer. Up above Bear Valley Ski Resort. Was around 90 deg at 4500 - 5000 elevation. I was sucking wind by the first pic. This was looking down onto the resort from a mountain across the way. Looks a lot different without snow..

The crew on this day.. Left to right, my sons best buddy, uncle Dave who, at 61 (10 years older than the oldest of us - me!) put a whoopin' on us all day long, my son and my good friend and instigator of all of our worst ideas...Rob. This was about an hour in through the most difficult and technical riding that I have ever done. At this point we had passed through 3 of the 8 rock gardens that had rocks the size of jagged basketballs that moved just as easily. I had wrecked twice by now.

This was a nice little "oasis" to come across. It was a cabin that IIRC was built in the late 1800s to give shelter to travelers, hunters or knuckleheads like us that were lost. There is a guestbook to sign and it is expected to leave something for the next visitor. We left some snack bars. The folks before us left pears.

Uncle Dave said he'd been there on the snow machine when they had to dig down to the 2nd story window to get in..

Dont know why the pic is sideways but you get the point. Its a lot of snow to get to the 2nd story!

['63GENIII]

One of the caches inside...

['63GENIII]

Gotta figure out the sideways pics thing before I go much further. Sorry guys

[special-K]

Great pictures, all of them, and a great time I'm sure. You can always spot those ski areas from as far as you can see. I'm surprised big bear doesn't help himself to the tasty morsels left behind.

Back in 1979 I cut a bunch of new ski trails at Telluride. That was at 10,000 to 11,500 feet! Steep too, I would tip the trees downhill and they would run 50 to 100 feet and take off most of the branches on the underside. I learned to cut three or four keeping them parallel and then go down and buck them up.

No pictures ... it was 40+ years ago

Heading out yesterday morning to meet my wife at work so we could get our flu shots and this fellow pulls up next to me at the stop light. Nice looking Ole AD truck. Sounded like a healthy 350 sbc.

Got passed by this bike gang while heading down the Grapevine many years ago. I was doing 50 when they took me out. Darn little scooters were all over the road. That granny lane had pot holes bigger then those bikes!
