I posed briefly with “Huey,” the Humane Society mascot at their booth on Saturday at the 19th Annual Fly-in and Classic Car Show. Good show with lots of classic cars and airplanes. Click on the link to see a slide show I prepared for the other blog. Click on Verna’s photo to enlarge.
I spotted this classic “bob tail” Chevy tractor truck parked near the post office in town today. I did a little research on Google images and I think that this is a 1950 model, although I’m not certain. It is vintage, however and in really nice condition.
I believe that Chevrolet is no longer in the big rig business although GMC may still produce tractor trucks.
Of course, you will need your free pair of 3D glasses to view the anaglyph image. In case you do not have 3D glasses, you can view the 2D version here.
Today was the 18th annual classic car show and fly-in at the Wickenburg Airport. We took a few minutes to drive over and get some awesome pictures of their stuff. We also bought a T-shirt commemorating the event. Click on the image to enlarge.
I took an image of the railroad track the other day. We crossed the BNSF track at Yavapai, just north of the old train station. There is a siding (seldom used) and a switch for directing the train cars onto the siding. When rendered in sepia, the shot looks like it could have been taken last century.

Since we were in California on our regular shopping day (Thursday), we went to the grocery store this morning. The store we went to is located in the old historic part of Wickenburg. This old schoolhouse is right next to the store. It sure looked pretty in the morning sunlight. Click on the image to enlarge.
I took this photo of the antique AT&SF locomotive and caboose on display on Frontier Street in old downtown. We do live in a picturesque place in the high Sonaran desert in a beautiful and historic little western town. Click on the image to enlarge.
