It’s Sunday! How did Route 66 become the most famous highway in America? I came across this video which answers that question and offers an interesting look at the culture surrounding the great Mother Road. Check it out if you have a few minutes.

It’s Saturday! I have another beaver sighting to report! This one comes from Mike, a reader who found this particular beaver in the good ‘ole USA. It’s called Beaver Brother’s Lakeside Cafe and he found it in Darien Lake, New York. It’s Rustic lodge-style eatery in the Darien Lake theme park, offering what they call American grub & breakfast buffet. Sounds pretty tasty to me!

Howdy Keep! Love the site. It’s the first I head when I fire up the PC every morning. Was just out at Darien Lake, NY a couple of weeks ago and had a beaver sighting to share with you. Nothing against our friends up north but I thought it’s about time we have a good old US of A beaver. Please don’t get me wrong, those Canadian beavers are mighty nice as well. ? Keep up the great work! Cheers! -Mike

It’s Friday! Just opened a new bag of Great Skott pumpkin seeds and they’re very tasty. Not as good as my homemade seeds, but those will have to wait a month or so yet.

Earnhardt Jr. and family survived a plane crash when their private jet rolled off the end of the runway and caught fire in Tennessee. They suffered only cuts and bruises but Earnhardt Jr. will not be in the broadcasting booth for the Nascar Cup race in Bristol, Tennessee, this Saturday night.

Today I have a whole mess of automotive goodness from Cruise Night in Morris, Illinois. That should help wrap up the weekend nicely along with the usual Friday double babes & double jokes. Enjoy!
