I agree. I'm what you would call afraid of unprotected heights. I once offered to paint a mast on a 50 ft. sailboat. Once I got to the top, I realized that it probably wasn't the thing for me to do.
p.11 You did better than i - I wouldn't have gotten halfway up.

p.12 Beautiful series....I never even thought of a carousel, but you're right. Wonderful mechanisms on them.

Another batch, this time earth-bound. :-) The first one has a story. My wife and I came across this WW2 vintage line truck in the maintenance area of a state park a bit north of Des Moines, Iowa. It appeared to be still in service. My grandfather owned a truck just like this back around 1970. I used to drive it for him to worksites (this was in the North Country of New York State). It was amazing to walk around it and see it just as I remember it.
p.12 What a wonderful story, Irv. And another great series.

Looks like your grandson is serious about racing!
Definitely serious! He's been at it since the age of 10 or so, when he raced go-carts. He's 31.
