More Pics of the big wreck in Oxford




Working through the night. The train hit the back end of the huge trailer hauling one of the sections of a huge windmill generator base.


Fishing in New York along time ago..........

Bob Cummins and I fishing on the St Lawarence River in upper New York in the late 70's and as you can clearly see my fish is bigger.

Train Wreck in Oxford


Looks like a truck driver should of paid a little more attention. Looks like he is hauling a section of huge wind generator base but didn't get across the tracks fast enough. I am guessing, but I'll bet he will be driving for someone else. Maybe!!

1st Day of Run Sunnyside, Washington


Even though I still have to stay home for a while longer for physical therapy, Al is taking over my crew until I get there. They drove 2000 miles to Portland, Oregon. They crew picks of the truck hit a scale just outside of Portland. 7000 lbs overweight $1030.00 fine, had to rent a U Haul for another $500.00 rent as the last I new they were unloading 7000 lbs into a U Haul so they could make it through the scale.
Got to go have a Doctors appointment in Kearney in the morning.
