I first noticed this little
military truck on the TV series "The Unit". This one was on a
"parking lot" traveling somewhere. A parking lot is trucker slang
for a car hauler. |

Many of these huge crosses are
on the sides of the interstates. |

Interesting custom trike! It
has a 1600 Volkswagen engine and straight shift transmission. |
|
|
|
|
 |
This is George and Nancy the
owners and builders of the custom trike above. I enjoyed meeting
George and Nancy at the Conoco in Conway , Missouri. They are
members of the Route 66 chapter of the Brothers of the Third Wheel. |

This is a beautiful little

|
|
|

The stain glass work is
excellent. |

car in the garage of a small trucking company in Richmond, Virginia. |
|

|
|
 |
Someone forgot to hang it up in
Hope Hull, Alabama. |
|

This is an interesting
restoration. I wish I could have gotten a better shot. |

This is known as Idleaire. A
truck parks and then the yellow hose is attached to the right side
of the cab. You get air conditioning, television with current in
theatre movies, electricity, internet access, telephone, all without
the truck idling. It can be expensive. |
|
|
|
|
 |
As you can see truckers park in
Idleaire as a last resort. |

Tennessee wants to limit the
amount of time a trucker can sleep in a rest area. Virginia is the
same. What do you think of that Mothers Against Tired Truckers of
America? |

This trailer was abandoned in a
truck stop north of Charlotte North Carolina. This is not a good idea. Can you say KABOOM....Ask any

I found this graveyard next to
a McDonalds distribution center on Fulton Industrial in Atlanta. |
|
|
|
|
 |
The people at the DC told me
it's an old civil war graveyard. They said people show up about once
a year and mow the grass and clean it up. God bless those
volunteers. |

I found this on an old ford
pickup truck in somewhere USA. |

The yellow box is new
technology in the trucking industry. It is magnetically attached to
a trailer after entering a facilities yard. They track the trailers
with the antenna system in the next photo. |

This antenna system used to
track trailers is placed about every 100 feet on the building. |

You will see dinosaurs fighting
on route 340 near Winchester, Virginia. |
| |
|
|
|
 |
And if the
dinosaurs weren't scary enough, look at that diesel price. It is
literally scaring drivers to death. They don't know what to do.
They want the nanny government to help them. Do you think W will
try to help the little truck drivers. |

I saw
this trailer (the small yellow motorcycle trailer) being
pulled by a fifth wheel camper rig on the New Jersey turnpike

It was

driver to see. |
 |
Another closeup shot. |

I noticed these concrete
pads at an old pickle plant in Montgomery, Alabama. The guard told me they were used to
press the pickles. I would have thought the pickles were sliced.
Hmmm. What do you think? |
