Back yard pie car


This is one of the few things that never changed. I think the two kids in the picture are Shannon and the Ferias girl in 1978.

Dalilah sent me a story about a Pastor asking his Congregation for a show of hands from those who had no enemies. At first there were a number of hands but after reflection only one hand remained raised, a little old lady.
The Pastor asked "How old are you My Dear?",... "98", "And you have no enemies?"..."No".
"And to what do you attribute this blessing"...."I outlived the dirty bitches!".
Reminds me of something my mother would say.

the PIE CAR on Kelly Miller was a Semi Tractor Trailer. Once inside it looked like a diner. Swivel stools and all. Now that I am ELDERLY I remember those little things. Best hamburger in the world. Red ans Lil scared me at first, but were the salt of the earth.

Karen, Get a load of that TUSH on the guy on the left. For you ELDERLY folks, That means his ASS. He isn,t showing any panty lines either. We can still look even if we have to wear glasses. Why do you think I got mine in the first place?

Red Compton and "Lucious" Lillian Long, I remember them well.

Funny, I can remember the taste of the hamburger from the pie car in 1960 on Kelly Miller, but can't remember my sign in name on the blog from day to day.

Heard rumor that when the C&B show leaves Hugo this season the pie car may include an internet cafe.

Karen, He is the one in the beige trousers bending over. Enlarge picture if you must.

Another Elderly lady thought. I remember that in the cook house tent, different people sat at different tables during the meals. Segration[?] And one table did not talk to the other table. In the Pie Car it was completely different. John Carrol even sat next to me and talked. As only he could. The same goes for Robert Cline. I worked with these men on Winter dates for DR and will bet we never said a dozen words to each other. The Pie Car made us equal for what ever reason.

The chef was Robert Leroy and the dish washer was "Doniker" Dick, not the cleanest guy I ever knew but from the elbows down positively immaculate. Would have been allowed to practice brain surgery.

I have the funniest joke about brain surgery and hemroids. For some of us there is not much difference. Remember I am elderly.
