Coach sighting

[pickle4k1]

On my way to Shawnee I saw a coach being hauled on the back of a Landoll trailer toward Bakersfield on W-58 about 1PM today. I hope that none is stranded. If there is a need to carry something or someone to Shawnee, I would be able to help. I am over night at Needles River RV park. Seeing a coach on a trailer is not a pleasant sight.

That was most likely Chuck Garton heading back to Ridgecrest, CA
Low oil pressure and a rod knock. He did not want to take a chance to continue on to Shawnee. He was running a low mileage rebuild but we will have to wait for the diagnostics.
We won't make it either because of trees down and power line damage from an unusually heavy wet snow here in the foothills of the Sierras. Need to clear some downed trees and reset the power drops once the snow melts.
Glad we have global warming, otherwise I would expect an invasion of the wooly mammoths next

I saw a GMC in San Marcos California yesterday afternoon. It was a very
striking Medium Gold solid color, with a dark Brown or Maroon stripe around
the beltline. Does this sound familiar to anyone?

About 6:30 this evening saw a well loaded GMC in Lake Suzie, FL, pulling onto the I-75 North ramp. By the time we got onto I-75 we were too far behind to catch up for a rolling photo. As we turned off 11 miles up the road, we saw the coach disappearing over a bridge in front of us (not to say that it fell of the bridge, but was crossing an overpass on the highway.... :d )

It was a good looker with a snazzy paint scheme.

Been looking for a coach that lives in North Port, FL this week, but haven't seen it, and it's back to Indiana tomorrow, so don't suppose we'll see it this trip.

It's always fun to look for these things and more fun to see them......

My daughter near Omaha says that Nebraskans
claim that IOWA on a license plate signifies
"Idiot Out Wandering Aimlessly."

I've always wondered what Iowans say about the
Cornshuckers!
