Larry, nice photos as usual, love that old ( can't call it junk really ) stuff. The 955 cat crawler loader looks like the one I ran for C. Caruso, field super told me it was Chip Caruso's first machine, even at the time it was the oldest, they had me clearing trees for pipe easements, with only a weather cab, I was still young a stupid in those days LOL, but I knew enough to be safe, had just run a really well kept 977L for Tobar up in Morristown, NJ that had the full OROPS, limb risers and brush mesh, designed for the tractor, running that 955 was like going outside without your pants on, I wanted that 977L back in the worst way.
There are 2 blue stone quarries up here, in the heldeberg mountains, over by Berne NY, I had to buy a trailer load of it for a new building in NYC, that required this stone from one or the other of these 2 quarries, I forget their names but the stone they have is exclusive, was the only 2 places the land mark preservation approved facade would allow, community boards in NYC are a real pain when it comes to constructing a building to their specifications. They could not get me shop drawings soon enough, nor could I approvals, to meet fabrication and delivery so the bluestone base course was re designed to be a cladding, which I did not like but deadlines are deadlines in NYC, could not wait to start brick, well the feisty owners rep created this dilemma before I agreed to do the job, but I had to solve it, ... whenever I hear blue stone...... reminds me of that high stress job and this bad breath reeking arrogant owners rep LOL !

In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer.
