  1. Here is another shot of hwy 60 about 60 miles closer to Phoenix than the Salt River Canyon. This bus just went through the old Claypool tunnel and is heading roughly west towards Superior.

    Since this tunnel was closed in 1952 I would guess it is close to that time.

    That is quite a drop off on the left!

    Salute! Sailors cross King Street as trolley cars and Model T’s zoom by in this 1925 photo. Flags line the street in honor of the U.S. Navy fleet’s arrival in Honolulu.

  14. Except that Ralph wouldn't have been down in the sewer. Ralph was a bus driver.

    That shortwave receiver, left side, third item from the front. Built that. Not sure what happened to it after I joined the Navy.

    My brother worked for Heathkit in Benton Harbor for a number of years. Started as a bench tech after he got out of the Air Force in '64 or '65, wound up in management after they became Heath-Zenith.

    My Dad had several pieces of Heathkit test equipment that he built over the years. My brother used to build Heathkit kits too, including a Heathkit color TV!

    I just bought a Heathkit signal generator that was never built. I gotta put it together one of these days.
