Old Truck

[Bottles r LEET]

I have an update on the Chevy that started this thread. It has been dragged out. It is going to be parted out and then scrapped. The guy was thinking about restoring it, but the frame was rusted bad. I'm kind of sorry to see it go.

Heading up to inlaws in 2wks-ish. Going to be a fun week of MD'ing and hopefully digging. Daughter and I are going to hunt down the 2 1850-1890ish privies. Going to also get some pics of some "woods vehicles" to post on this thread. I'll see if I can get back into the woods where the old '30s Ford has a tree growing through it.

I might take some pics of abandoned houses up there. One way back near shore of lake superior that's been empty since my father in law was in his teens. When he was younger he'd go there and help pick apples at the orchard just on the shore. (It's a Native American planted orchard). The house is dilapidated and not safe, the barn/sauna/woodshed are all still up and full of stuff. The privy site is now a slight depression in the ground.

There's also a 1 room stone house on the steep side of a ridge up there...one wall and chimney are all that's left. Quite a few old deer camps randomly scattered up there too. Will need to see if I can get back into the woods to get some pics of them. Woods get a bit thick in the summer in that area.

the abandoned cars I was going to take pics of are gone now. We drove around and saw quite a few dump trucks and flatbed trucks from the 40's and 50's. They were way back in the yards next to barns and didn't want to bother people. Next time I'll bring up the "normal" camera and get some zoomed pics from the road vs just having my iphone 4s...

[] I used to have a 1953 Loewy coupe, but had to sell it when I moved because of no place to keep it, Always loved the Studes of the middle to late thirties. Neat old car......
