I hope it's not too smoky up there for you John.  It's all getting blown in that direction today and through the weekend.

 

Don't forget to check out the world famous pile out in the back of RCD's old place.  It's where my '57 GE Combination and KDS 20 were pulled from.  I'm pretty sure one of Nate's dishwashers was sourced from there as well.

I did snap a couple pictures of the scrap pile, and I met their new little puppy which is going to become the protector of the place.

It was good to see where Andy worked all those years that place is still doing well anybody lives out here should remember this place they are a good organization.

Picture #3 explains why the pile appears to consist entirely of modern junk.  I'm glad they're saving the worthwhile older trade-ins and making them viable again.  I'll bet they receive few if any repair calls during the one-year warranty period.

 

I'm glad you got to visit Sargent's John.  It's about the only draw in Sparks besides the Nugget (if it's even still there).
