Santa Fe Caboose up for sale at a local Estate Sale.

I wonder if anyone would notice this sign in the backyard. #railroads

So many signs

If you ever want to open up one of those kitchy Route 66 souvenir shops... Looks like this is the place to go, lol.
Show threadAI6YR Ben15h ago
Hmm, there are two morse code keys in there. Among other stuff. I imagine the plae is chock full of random stuff.

Ship's wheel? Cowboy hat? Entire gas station replica buliding with gas pumps? Shelled Walnuts sign?

My first legal beer was a Rolling Rock. Lol

@RVLara23 @ai6yr I'm so sorry.

I like Rolling Rock. A nice nostalgia beer. And they put on a helluva Rock festival too.

But alas, it wasn't my choice. It was bought for me.

@RVLara23 @W6KME I've only bought Rolling Rock once in my life. (and I didn't drink any of it). I bought it in the middle of the day, on a bicycle, and the clerk there treated me like I was a problem day drinker and quietly rang me up and let me out the side door of our grocery store ("hey, buddy, you don't have to go out the front entrance... I'll let you out here...") 😂

(It was for slugs, but ended up all consumed by the wood rats)

@ai6yr @RVLara23 Oof, if I had gotten that sort of treatment, I'd have drunk it on the spot without breaking eye contact. Even a Rolling Rock.

I assume they still make it? I don't think I've even seen it anywhere since I left the East Coast.

@RVLara23 @ai6yr Budweiser bought them a couple of decades ago. They make it in Jersey now, while still putting the original brewery address on the label. It's usually the cheapest stuff in the store. Definitely not the beer that Latrobe Brewing brought out in the 1930s.

Interesting. Well, that explains a lot.
