Re: Foresta Frames
I'm pushing myself with this one, and every step of the way has been a process of evaluation, self doubt, and pushing on trying to connect with the vision. I'm ready to lay some pearl now, then move ahead with the next round of graphics. We'll see where this road goes.
The animal shapes are masks at this point.

Hi Dave, I think it was probably a rock, but can't say for sure. I drove that old truck in 1977, and it was a 1965. I remember it like yesterday, a binder with a 250 cummins, 5x3 transmission, no A/C, no power steering, no radials, no air ride. I was leased on to Dart up in St. Paul, your neck of the woods. Drove it all over the lower 48 until I could get into something better. I hauled Coors east of the Mississippi with that old truck, definitely a no no, but the load was there.

This was just before that movie came out by a few months. Later in the fall of 1977 I was in a different truck and remember stopping with it to see that movie. At the time Coors only distributed in a few western states, and thus had this rep going. I pulled around the back side of a strip mall in Colorado Springs where a small liquor store had the entire back room full of cases of Coors. We put down a ramp and about 4 guys with two wheelers loaded it all in. They told me to keep it on the downlow. I took it to a beverage distributor in DesMoines for a Sunday delivery. I called a number when I got in and the owner came in with a couple of guys to unload me. At the time places like that didn't work on Sunday's. We all had a beer before I left.

I've had this copy of the babe hanging in my classroom for the last 26 years. I added the modern one more recently to reflect the way I feel now and then...

When your school hosts a 40 team indoor track meet, you do what you can for the team. So they make you the announcer.
