Did you stop by? Should have been an easy place to find, lots of cooking stuff out front and a porch all tore apart. Oh yeah, a beer cooler with nothing in it but wine. (poke, poke) ------------- "Allis-Express" 19?? WC / 1941 C / 1952 CA / 1956 WD45 / 1957 WD45 / 1958 D-17 |

| Shameless. If I would have known where you lived I would have stopped. Omaha had me stressed out from being lost. I finally picked up hwy 75 and knew it run north and south. That is how I found Blair. Tadams. I stayed out of Rapid City. Used the truck bypass. Wife and I went Custer State Park,Bear Country, and Deadwood Mt Moriah cemetery. Had to visit kinfolks grave Wild Bill. Most of my kinfolks I think was horse thieves out of Kentucky. ha! ha! I feel sorry for farmers along the Missouri river Seen a lot of acres not planted and a lot ready for harvest standing full of water. Hope everyone has a good day. Gary |

Shameless's place is easy to find, north of town, east side of the road. When I was there he showed me around but kind of steered me away from one shed, said something like it might fall down or something. I'm thinking it's the location of the "pretty machine". Has a gleaner combine parked in it but I think it might be built into the grain tank and cab or something. ------------- "If at first you don't succeed, get a bigger hammer" Allis Express participant |
