TIME TO GET UP AND GOING OLDGASSERS! A soggy wet one here around 40º and alot better than what it was. rest of the week should see a warming trend near 50º!! WOOT! Yesterday I took a hike on town property and wandered over to a yard where there used to be an old large house built in the late 1800's. When they razed it years ago, It seems the house ended up in various piles to the rear of the property which is now used by the Town's own electric company. COOL....saw a bunch of deer back there too. HAGD! (I colored the coke machine!) Ad from 1948.

Good morning DOC - and all the rest of you Oldgassers!
Wet, foggy, & wet here this morning. Visibility of about 3/4 of a mile on my way into - and out of - Port Huron today.
The 'Weather Weenies' are calling for all the rain to turn to snow later tonight as a cold front comes in - but it's upposed to warm up for the weekend. So who knows?
Later . . .
Jim

Good Morning everyone, We had a big storm roll through here early this morning. I usually sleep through the worst storms, but this one woke me up with wind and rain hitting the house so hard it was very noisy. Was in the 40s early today, now in the 30s and dropping. We got a new cordless phone system that hooks to our cell phones by Bluetooth. We just place our cell phones within 10 feet of the base unit and they automatically linkup. Getting better cell connections and don't have to carry the thing around when we're home. Have a great Tuesday!

Nice pic of the Vendo 83 Doc! Nothing more than a Decoration piece now. I am sure it was a workhorse in it's day. Mine sits idle collecting dust.

How about the gas pump, the little that showing? Reminds me of the one that Mike618b is making in showcase!
