I have to tell you...lol...I had a new 1958 Plymouth Convertable once, drove it for years and across country several times. I think I have some old b & w pictures of it, maybe I can find. Mmmm, so long ago.DDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01912324534961704540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-46455394656599583112012-04-16T17:39:31.605-04:002012-04-16T17:39:31.605-04:00Hey, Jack and Sherry!

The Tellico Church sufferred serious damages to the roofs of both Church and Parsonage during the recent tornado there. They have put on a metal roof now. I've been out of "it" lately and not reading blogs as much. I try to get here and see yours but don't always comment because I've had some serious weak spells...but am regaining strength slowly. Trouble starts when I have chemo and usually lasts for a full week. Then when I'm feel better, they "zap" me again. I'm still day-dreaming and scheming for the 100 mile wilderness on the AT!!!Fred Altonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12740055638280779519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-58602400623622073702012-04-16T16:53:59.579-04:002012-04-16T16:53:59.579-04:00Hate flat roofs.

Looks like we need to hire your son. Sure wish he was closer than half the USA away. Prayers for more work for him. He sounds like a go-getter and the good Lord will see to his needs., one way or another. <br />Those vegan Collards look right good...what's the 'pink' I see floating around in there? No matter, I'll try anything once and usually love anything that goes down the shoot. Family is looking happy...look at that gorgeous Shirl. Are you sure she's your sister?...just kidding. You all are a handsome/gorgeous bunch.<br />BlessYourHeartsDarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16642092433299872708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-52147000682938571612012-04-16T15:51:07.814-04:002012-04-16T15:51:07.814-04:00When scrap metal prices skyrocketed everybody and ...When scrap metal prices skyrocketed everybody and their Granny around here started hauling it. Good money for those who took the time to strip and seperate the various metals to get #1 grade price. Problem is the theives got in on the action and started stealing everything they could get their hands on and vehicle enforcement started pulling people over when they saw they were hauling loads of scrap and giving them tickets for anything they could think of. And then there's the problem of so many vehicles being hauled for scrap it's hard to find used parts anymore when you need them and lots of good usable metal has been hauled to scrap metal yards. Gary has hauled some but he's very picky about what he gets rid of and he keeps what he thinks he can use. That stuff ain't cheap when ya have to buy it new.<br />You do what ya have to do when the going gets tough to make ends meet. It's a good thing we like bologna. haha<br /><br />Love ya<br />DebbieDebbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09039342776866311508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-675991105921338712012-04-16T08:18:03.051-04:002012-04-16T08:18:03.051-04:00The '49-'51 Fords still look good!

HIs son, new at the helm, scrapped the cars already planned for '49 and saw to it that this design went into production.<br />Robert Bourke, who styled the beautiful '53 Studebaker Starliner was part of the design team that created the '49 Ford. Bourke was a very talented car stylist.Louis la Vachehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09039777863022193315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-56545659620088879052012-04-16T07:04:25.844-04:002012-04-16T07:04:25.844-04:00Lots of folks have changed their way of making a l...Lots of folks have changed their way of making a living and find ways to make do. Nothing lasts forever and this won't either. Hope your son can hang in there, we never know when opportunity is going to knock. One thing I've learned is that life never ceases to surprise me. I'm enjoying my coffee here at my camper this morning. My SIL helped to get everything hooked up yesterday and I'll be heading back home sometime today. The wonderful news is that there were no mice in my camper !!! First time since I've been parked here.<br /><br />Hope your Monday is a great one!I'm mostly known as 'MA'https://www.blogger.com/profile/12107548726472541669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-29827869778102346662012-04-15T23:43:08.516-04:002012-04-15T23:43:08.516-04:00ROOF looks GREAT.
