No easy trick to keep a ‘72 from leaking. Nice!

        This is Walt, one of the nicest guys we have ever met. Incredibly knowledgeable on the history of the trains and so willing to give you his time to pass on history from a bygone era. Thank you Walt!!  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ohhhh,
Grampa was a Carpenter, built houses, stores and banks. Didn't smoke no cigarettes, but he drilled big holes in planks. On my Mom's side of the circus and in Adair County Missouri to be precise... and he really was a Carpenter, Farmer and from what I was told a prankster too. Passed on before I was born from "consumption" or really cancer. I now wonder if it was exposure to "Asphalt and Asbestos" best building materials ever! The auger bit apron would have sucked every time you bend forward and poke yourself with the longest bit. Phone # 152   FIL worked on big rockets on the electrical bits. Boeing appreciated us thinking about them.   Post McDonnell Douglas take over the Boeing crowd all got a cool new swooosh sticker to put on our stinkin badges. I was always on the watch for cute girls that might need CPR-

random pics that YOU have taken.......
  Shot this while standing in between the taxi way and runway at the Columbia Airport shooting pics of different planes taking off. Had to update my wording, didn’t want folks think at was shooting “at” planes taking off.   Dark sky’s a brewin.. “Nice train pics too, Trev!” Thanks Baz!! Mrs. Bugs is working and learning on her plants and veggies. It makes me smile she has found something to work on.

Got to the track this afternoon, unloaded the car and everything looks great....
Until I noticed one of the trailer tires was missing! Somewhere between Charleston and Savannah, the tire self-destructed. Called U-Haul and they had it replaced within an hour.

1 hour - damn good service from U-Haul, I'd say!
How'd the car do?

Baz has it right. Peachtree BMWCCA as a DE and a race today and this weekend. My fastest lap today was a 1:25.xx and the fastest class racers are turning 1:14's.
I need another 100 horsepower! |

I can't recall what my times were but 1:25 sounds damn quick to me, Rocket!
Take care and be safe!
