Antique Trucks At Macungie – Final Entry

Saturday, June 14

I went through the many pictures that I have left in my Macungie file and decided to choose some special ones for here, and post the rest on my Facebook page, so if you like trucks and old cars, go to Doris Jean High on Facebook.

That way I won’t bore the rest of you with truck pictures for another few nights. 🙂

We had a great time visiting with friends and drivers who came by the chapel.

DSC_1683After the incoming traffic slowed down, I took a walk around the grounds.

DSC_1684Shortly after lunch we noticed that a driver who was trying to leave was stuck in the muddy grass next to us.

DSC_1686Because of Friday night’s rain, there were guys waiting to pull them out.

DSC_1703We packed up the chapel and headed toward home shortly after 3:00 PM because we had another appointment ~ and the activities of the day were pretty much finished by then.

Thanks to Chaplains Jake and Bob for helping us, and for Bob’s wife Betty for joining us for Saturday.

DSC_1706It has been a long time since I had to follow the chapel with our car ~ and driving on interstates is not one of my favorite things to do ~ but it was a good drive home.
