    A neighbor in my hometown lived in a sears House. They still have the blue prints/instructions that they used to build their home.

    The house I lived in for the first five years of my life had been built by my Dad from such a kit, although I believe it was an Aladdin, rather than Sears.

    It still remains well maintained to this day and I had a chance to go back and revisit it as an adult.

    He climbs this tower just twice a year to change the light bulb. It is only 457 meters (.246 miles) and the only benefit is $20K for each trip.

    OK, found this photo take of the back of the house back in the 1950s.

    Outstanding.
    I once came across a grove of derelict B-17s in a jungle like lot just north of St. Augustine. I love looking at old metal even if it's not round and reeded.

    Well, that would be a LOT cooler than these old trucks!
    The old trucks are pretty fun indeed. Glad you enjoyed them.
    I wanted to climb up and poke around behind the seats for old coins but I was walking a shelter doggie and had my hands full. :-)

    Friday approaches.

    Here is a photo taken this week to show the new cross bars that are now mounted on the roof rails of the vehicle I picked up overseas at the factory in Sweden earlier this year. Also changed over for the winter to studded snow tires mounted on their own separate wheels.
