The View Out of My Office

I know, what a office view
I was working today. What I call work is flying a few sites and waiting for the phone to ring.
You can see the city of Pittsburgh in the background




This is Robert Morris University. They are great clients.
I have been photographing there expansion for many years

Poor Trailers and Vintage Bikes

I went to look at this 75 Argosy for sale at a campground. It was owned by a guy for many years. It was used as a summer camp and had not been towed for a very long time. It was all there but it needed everything. The frame was rusty the floor was bad. They said it was a 20 footer. That was the reason I went to look at it. It turned out to be a 26 footer. I passed on it. It is still for sale.



This is a Scotty that's for sale a few miles from my house. I have been driving by this trailer for years. It never moved. Today its up by the road for sale. I stopped and looked at it. It was in OK shape on the inside. The outside is pretty ruff.



Amanda hadn't ridden her little blue Honda for long time. I fixed a tire so I could ride it to the mail box. She saw me working on it and won't to ride it. Yes it's a vintage 1971 Hinda SL70. I taught her to ride it when she was nine.




Here is Amanda when she was nine washing her bike. She was so proud to have a bike.





Here's me showing my skilled riding ability
Check out the the Vintage Trailer Supply hat.

Yes anyone can buy shelving from IKEA

Yes anyone can buy shelving from IKEA. Anyone other then me. In my world, I just get to work. Today I started with a empty bay in my shed. By the end of the day, I'm all moved in.


This is my lumber. This is rough cut pine I had milled.

Laying out shelving


This is looking pretty good!
All moved in.
Custom built selves for bins




Side shelving is 5 feet wide and 8 feet high
Not bad for one day's work!

Great Time Camping











Yes, After all the work I've been doing. I was ready for a break. We packed up our Scotty on Friday and headed south to a place called Chestnut Ridge Park in WV to met some of our Scotty friends. The weather was great. It was warm during the day and there was a cool breeze at night. We did have some rain, I wouldn't have wanted to be in a tent. But we were warm and dry in our Scotty.


We had a great time around the campfire. I ate way to much at the potluck dinner. The kids had fun hanging with there Scotty friendsa. I hardly saw them all weekend. We have one more fall camp out planned. We will take our Airstream east for a fall rally.
