Belleayre, NY: Train Tracks to Fresh Tracks

Dang Mr Rip.in beast mode once again.

Heard a true story recently from someone who went into the DMV awhile back to get a new registration for their car. Patiently waited and finally got the new registration for the car. Went to the car in the DMV’s big parking lot and scraped the old sticker off, the went to start the car to leave and the key didn’t work. Realized it wasn’t their car (Same make model, color)... Went back inside to explain the screw F up. DMV makes a loudspeaker announcement to the unknowing owner of whose car it was, now without a registration sticker.... The person who told me the story ended up paying for replacement stickers all the way around. The person whose car’s registration sticker got plundered was nice about it.

You were at the Department of Motorized Vehicles... Maybe ya’d have better luck at the Department of non-Motorized Vehicles. Ya traveled in without a motor to register a trailer that has no motor.

You’re inspiring me to plan some bigger trips this summer, Rip- also to seek out some good Eggs Benedict

how do I get one of those Double Chair podcast stickers

Normal procedure is to tap me on the shoulder at Plattekill and ask for one but long time forum members can DM me an address and I’ll mail it. I have enough left for 10-15 people at this point.

Edited to add Simpson Ski Slope, where it all began.

I stopped there on the way home to honor our heritage. The CCC cleared the first slopes in 1935.

I believe I read somewhere that one of the old boys was killed when they were blasting.
