Love the second pic. What's all the white box-like things on the trees at the river bank?
I can do this, I can do this, I, well, maybe

Rich, those white boxes are actually rings of ice. That is how high the water was
recently.
I really like the 2nd picture also.
Taking the pictures on the hill made me nervous. Pull the "E" brake ,put it in gear
and move quickly. All the while hoping it doesn't roll down the hill.

Great pictures, I always enjoy yours. Nothing is better then seeing a 57 doing what a 57 should do. Drive on my friend  :burnout:

I was on a dirt road also last week. We have just the opposite problem, our river is so dried up I could driven across it   :005:

Thanks for the pictures.   It's nice to see that you have it out and that you are driving it.

It is great to see someone actually out and drivin' it. I always enjoy your pics when you post them.

6cyl57, they must not use salt out there. Our roads are horrible with salt.

they use so much salt in northern Illinois, that you might as well be in Bonneville!

Ain't that the truth!  WI is the same, my Christmas trip home resulted in a two tone truck, white on the sides and red on the top....

Packed my lunch and headed to the river, still nothing more then a trickle but the dirt roads were fun. I almost found a flat place to park. I may need to put truck tires on the back next time  :003:
