Welcome to Ho Hum Hollow

For past several years have hosted a reunion on the first Saturday in May for current and former employees of what was known as Juvenile Corrections, then Youth Services and now Juvenile Justice. The reunion has run its course with attendance and my health, so I am shutting it down.

Hopefully for the next few years will concentrate on finishing restoration on Goober's and Scooby's trucks.

Also have decided to embark on a program with Goober to actively promote the rescue of dogs from shelters.

Homelite Generator

This is the generator that I picked up at Bob's. It is now down at Ho Hum Hollow awating an operating manual. When I just about gave up on finding a manual a dealer listed two on ebay. I don't think it is an original but a copy. Regardless, it will give me a starting point on seeing if I can get this thing to work. I also found several ads for these generators and have ordered them as well. Below are pictures off ebay.

Fuddrucker's Car Show Last Fall

Fuddruckers show was late fall. Nice and cool. Opa stopped by and Andy showed up for a few minutes.

Sonic Cruise In

Newberry Car Club's Sonic Cruise In back in May. Weather was great.

Lowman Home Show

Sunday afternoon, June 27th. Only had 9 to show up. It was hot, way hot. Stayed about 2 hours then headed home. Everything went ok except for power steering unit. Probably will have to rebuild soon. Andy was not able to be at this event. Plans are now to get ready for parades at Little Mountain and Chapin Labor Day. Hope to move hose reels and make space whereby 3 to 4 can ride behind cab.

Just paved parking lot, hot, hot, hot!

The light and holder to the right were items from Bob's collection

Going to Bob and Joan's

Boog and I went on a short trip to the mountains. We spent Thursday night in Pigeon Forge. Friday morning we went to Cookeville, Tennessee. Earlier I noticed an ad on the SPAAMFAA web site for a portable generator. After a few phone calls and emails I was the new owner. Friday morning we arrived at the home of Bob and Joan. Bob is a long time member of SPAAMFAA. Bob and Joan were gracious hosts for the morning. In addition to the generator picked up several more items for the GMC. Planned to go to a show Saturday afternoon but that was not possible. Did manage to get to a show at the Lowman Home Sunday afternoon. It was hot. I do believe that the parking lot was over 110 and I was cooking at about 114.

Nice stream

Mr. Mike's Tractor Show

Finally got to Mr. Mike's Antique Power Equipment Show. Decided at last minute to take both the GMC and the Ford. Spent all day Saturday and up to early evening at show. This year had two bands and enjoyed both.

Andy and his pop chilling out. Later on Opa and Uncle Blueberry joined us. Ordered pizza from Zorba's. Next year will take a few Ying Lings along for health purposes.

Old Ford cleaned up pretty good

Big and little kids seemed to enjoy trucks
