Dad likes trucks.

These were the first two trucks for Lileks Oil. Neither exploded. That honor went to a tanker that blew up in the early 70s while loading at the old dock. We could see the smoke from our house on the other side of town. The driver would have gone up with the truck had he not leaped off to answer the phone.

It was a wrong number.

 

Winter time at the station resembled Antartica; they had to shovel paths in the drifts for the trucks.
