Meet "Petey" and "Luke" .......







While taking a ride I ran into Petey (dog) and Luke. These two have been in the news many times and all over the country. Petey is 14 1/2 years old and with Luke at the helm, they have logged over 1/2 million miles! Petey rides in an old milk crate, very secured to the back of Luke's motorcycle. Luke said they were on their way to visit 'Grandma"! We all love our animals! Petey also wears a harness collar ... Just in case! He has fallen out of the crate twice in his travels and the harness saved him from hitting the ground. Enjoyed these two. ... ..




Tobacco drying and smoking ........













Here is what I see when I take a ride around the neighborhood.

At this time of year the tobacco is being hauled, then dried and smoked.
