My wife brought some photo albums from her dad’s place. I found a couple from 1978 or 1979. Before I switched to coal, we burned firewood for 36 years. Here’s some pictures of getting wood in Potter county. I used to pile the wood as high as the side boards.

Dennis,thanks for posting your own personal vintage pics of your own vintage truck. It's good to see pics of your truck before you fixed it up.

Was this a New England thing? Here to go to first grade you had to get XRay'd on this
special bus. Yes I was scared thought I was to get stuck with needles. No it didn't hurt and it was free paid by the school dept.........Yes I grew up with Flxibles in my uncles bus Co.
