[AT] Tractor looking

[CEE VILL]

I have to tell you, George, that before the resurface work was done on RT I 
17 ( now I 86) I had to get off one time and take the old 415 south to Pa. 
to pick up a car.   I made the mistake of putting the tire pressure on both 
truck and trailer to 60 lbs for carrying the load prior to leaving home.  
With the pavement broken at each concrete slab, after a few miles of that 
road Doris and I thought our heads were going to explode.  Kaboom, kaboom, 
kaboom, about 10 times a minute at each seam.  The old two lane road was 
much better.  On the way home with a 74 Chrys. Newport on the trailer, we 
road like a baby buggy, but still stayed off the interstate.

The only thing living in the highest tax state in the U.S. guarantees is 
richer politicians.

>>Good morning Dudley,
>>
>>At Ripley, NY, you were really in WNY.  The lakeshores of both Erie and 
>>Ontario are great fruit belts, arent they?  I am located more South of 
>>Rochester at the south edge of Monroe County. This area is considered WNY, 
>>but is really not that far from the central area of the state either.  I 
>>guess I could say Eastern Western NY.(grin).
>>Yesterday we went South along Honeoye  Lake to Naples, Then
>>south still to Prattsburg and Kanona near Bath.  Mostly NYS Rt. 53 from 
>>Naples to Kanona.  Quite a bit of up and down thru the hills and very 
>>rural . Only a couple of "if you blink your eyes you miss them 
>>"communities along the way.  I think the cost of gas has cut down on the 
>>traffic so it was very light.  Quite nice to be able to drive the speed 
>>limit of 55 mph and for a change not have someone willing to die to pass 
>>you every minute.  From Konona we did a 180 back North on Rt. 415, then 
>>some county roads home from Wayland NY.
>>As Cecil mentions, there are still many real back roads in Southerntier 
>>NY,  but I try to stay off them unless I am in the 4X4.
