Nice rig you got there Scotty:)

Good Evenin Prokop,
Thanks, we have two Freightliners and two old Macks. One of the Macks is used for hauling dyed Kerosene, that was one of my jobs today. The trailer parks burn kerosene rather than #2 fuel. It burns hotter and the furnaces are much smaller.

So here a pick of one of our old cab over Macks, we joke that its got square gears, you must double clutch on every shift and the rpms' better be right to get into the next gear... or your pullin over and starting all over again ! :eek:

And one pic of the other end of the residential spectrum... glad I dont live there ! ;)

Land mine city !!! :rolleyes:

Scotty, that's a picture of my guest house.:eek:;) I particulary like the "Road Closed" sign covering the window. Sheesh! You must feel like just turnin' and walkin' when you see something like that. What a mess!

What do you mean? All it needs is a decent tower :D

Ever notice how many architects get paid for designing ugly buildings? Not that there isn't the place for a tower once in a while.

No kidding. Especially true with churches. Seems like every time architect starts to design a church, he/she feels like it must be artsy fartsy. Or maybe I am just snob, since churches in Bohemia typically go back hundreds of years and the style is very traditional.

Or next door :)

I lived next to a neighbor like that once. One day I heard fire sirens and looked out the window and saw a little smoke and the fire trucks there.

It didn't look bad so I just sat down and sarcastically told my wife "the neighbors are remodeling"

Well it actually was a serious fire on the opposite side from me, with 4 kids in the house, luckily no one was hurt.

Good Afternoon Jim,
YEP !!! Thats the place that has land mines 6" deep covered with leaves and then topped with snow... :rolleyes: Gotta love it ! ;)

Hey Dave,
Im not sure even a cutesy tower could help that place, unless of course your dumping 1203 out the window ontop of that rat trap and have a match in the other hand ! :)
