April Fools & Showers

I wondered what all that ringing was!!!

Full disclosure. In 67 I was driving a 63 Pontiac LeMans, 326 C.I. V8 with the infamous "Box Trans". Gas was $.33 a gallon

Ford's Granada didn't show up until 1975. Did drive one of them though.:(
Gas was $.57 a gallon.

That's what I thought. 67? I was given a 77. Loved that car! It was known around base as "The Boat."

Hello all... It is cold and windy and grey here in Ft. Wayne. Delivered here yesterday afternoon in the rain. Those GM guys unloaded me within about 15-20 minutes. That was the fastest any of the big car factories unloaded me. Maybe the others could learn from the GM people in Ft. Wayne how to quickly unload a truck?

I told dispatch to please either get me home or give me a long weekend run so I can drive Friday - Saturday & Sunday. No more sitting around on weekends without golf clubs or a fishing pole in the truck.

Watch out for the weather up there around the Great Lakes.

Welcome to the weekend all, waiting to get unloaded here in Dallas, and hoping that Dispatch gets me out of here in a hurry. With the great weather here, and all the sports events that are in town this weekend. I'm fighting with not just going out of service and playing all weekend. Stay safe all and have a great weekend.

Good luck getting out of there. You'll need it!
