Frosty Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 Seldon and I got together this morning at the coffee shop where we used to hang out. Yeah, turns out we sat at different tables when he lived here some 9 years ago. It was an excellent visit and we'll be getting together again soon to spend a day once he gets his eye squared away. What a great start to the day! Frosty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Lumpkins Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 Yea Frosty its a good thing being able to meet people that share your love for beatin on metal,, have a pretty good size list of names of people that have sent number's and addresses.. the biggest problem I have is being pushed by the company and not having the time.. Sometimes I just say the heck with it and make the time.. lol... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferrous Beuler Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 If you're rollin' through western new york stop in. I have a constant parade of semis going by 24-7-365. Trucks heading from canada, trucks heading from Penn, OH, looking to beat the tolls and stay off the I-90 head past me on 63/36 to connect with I-390 and I-17). Plenty going north too. South from Batavia New York on 63, right (south) on 36, hit the tee at 39 and you are there, your headlights are illuminating my living room. Pull to the right and stop with the park on your right. This is just a long grass area surrounded by trees. You are at a T intersection looking at a park, gazeebo, civil war statue (big one, lifesize soldier statue on top of column 50 ft high). Right there is wide shoulders both sides trucks park on regularly to hit the convenience store there. Walk on over and say Hi, number 30 South Parkway. Yellow fire hydrant right in front of my place by mailbox. I don't care if it is 3:00 a.m. on a weeknight, I really mean that, stop in. We'll bang on some iron no matter or I'll put you up till I get outa work. Dan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
