Hey..Ford too, stub-nose grain truck with pull button overdrive...capacity 280 bushels loaded..and don't let the combine get ahead of you while
filling from the auger on the go.
After a slipped clutch shift to 1st gear and momentary stalling..the sound of grain raining onto the roof of that cab was very...embarrassing,....
especially when retold that night at the dinner table.
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

Just sayin' that as the sun was going down and the tide was coming in, as A kid I made money driving cars off that beach before I had a DL.
I most recently stuck my 4X4 in bottomless talcum powder on the north end of the Alvord in SE OR out by the Mickey Springs Road!
I do it all the time.

hah...good on ya! I can relate only too well, vgabndo...the first outside the family money I ever made...was teaching my town kid buddies to drive a
tractor while pulling a rock sled through our fields.
Guess who filled the sled with mucho rocks for getting to drive that tractor? Talk about Tom Sawyer getting that fence whitewashed.. Ah, those were
the days, my friend.

Do you happen to know the Higuera's that live there? If so tell them hi from me and ask Dick to send me his email since i no longer have it.

Funny, we moved from Pismo to Half Moon Bay in 1958. Much closer to the ocean at HMB. On the bluff just south of Albert's Mira Mar Hotel. The joint
was a notorious speak easy with it's own bootlegging pier! Small world. |
I used to live on bluff just north of there on Buena Vista St, Moss Beach.
