Not being stupid but what are those two
odd looking cars at the rear? The two with spare
tires on the oddly sloped read deck?

Thanks,

yup. They're famous... but they're not "all plywood".
 
Hey Dale,

The weather in PR does`nt sound too darn good either!

Seems like you folks are getting more hurricanes etc. than New Orleans.

The West Coast gets land slides, Fires etc etc. Here on the East Coast we just beautiful scenery with calm temps; So Far.

Enjoy,

Russ

<span style="color: #660000">Careful there Russ- I was born and raised in PA. I well
remember my car covered over with snow and then sweltering in 107* summers.
The truly great days can be counted on two hands. :yesnod:

This was out first actual hurricane hit since 1998 Georges.
Florida takes many more direct hits than PR.

Boy,
I don't think we have hit 100* in the Lehigh Valley for at least 3 years, probably more. If anything, the weather changes have reduced to be even more stable than when I was growing up around here. I still can't fathom Christmas palm trees, even though I saw them in the Keys a few years back...
 
Dave, Christmas trees here are a real hoot.
They come from Canade are probably cut in September.
By the time we get them, most of the needles have fallen off.

Folks decorate these bare trees with lights, glass balls, etc.

Smethport!!! I'm from just over the hills in Bradford!! Slightly higher elevation! I would check some of the stats for that town too for extremes :thumbsup: !! Fall (Indian summer)has to have some of the hottest weather up there, and when the winter "lake effects" are hitting Buffalo, down at lake level, who is getting the brunt of it :wink: up in the Alleghenies behind Buffalo????
