When the Okies moved to California it raised the IQ of both places.

I love these photos. The second one looks like the driver side front tire has been cut by the rim but still holding air.
Just give me time to Rust and I'll be good as new. :) Wabi-Sabi

Hey if we do get a dust bowl again, Steve should be able to take photos of us in our T's heading out to California to pick fruit.

James

I'm glad you made that observation on the 2nd photo. That is really interesting to see, but what I think is really happening is that is a tire OVER a tire. Blow up the photo and look real hard and see if you don't agree.

I am always amazed and impressed by ingenuity displayed in those times. Inspiration borne from desperation and necessity...I just hope we're not headed toward this today.

Good eye Scott! Frankly, I don't pay that much attention to the details! Upon looking further for a change, looks like
all 4 tires are that way, but you already knew that!! :D
