Tony C. , Marty & Val, and so on...

Saw a white pickup truck again, thought it was GM Security, glanced out the driver's window, and there was Tony Capozzo - again. He laughs and says "Are you still here?" We talked about a half an hour or so - mostly tractor pulling stuff. Was wonderin', maybe he's there more than I am. Didn't ask him if maybe he actually punches a time card or something.

Was runnin' south down I-69 in Indiana Thursday, and came upon a couple vehicles hauling some tractors, just north of Ft. Wayne. "Gotta check this out", I thought to myself, so I mashed on it. Passed a Ford pickup with 2 on a trailer. Hmmm, tires are cut - must be a pull somewhere. Looked up the road & saw a couple more. Mashed on it some more, and passed a blue Freightshaker hauling 2 more. One said "Spanky" on it. Gosh, I've seen that one somewhere before, I thought. Got back over where I belong, grabbed the CB mic, and hollered back at them. Found out it was Marty & Valerie Felpausch. They were headed to the NATPA Princeton pull. I ran with them about an hour, before I had to get off and "feed the horse". Talked about lots of stuff. They may even have talked me into taking my little red one over to the Clintonia club in Michigan this summer. Andrew seemed to like the idea. Looks like their rules would work, but may have to get another set of tires. Let's see - to pull at all the places we'd like to, we need about 4 sets of tires... Guess that's what junkyards are for...
