There have been oil wells in Oh and Penn forever, I capped them, built oil well caps out of refined STEEL

My Mom thinks its destroying the planet but she pays the man to top off the Pennzoil and top off the tank.

To bad the man is struggling

UM, this Lorain steel plant is about 100 miles west of Geneva. No steel mills left anywhere near rte 11, it’s a ghost highway now, once Youngstown to Ashtabula but now Ashtabula to nowhere.

The iron miners in Minnesota are pretty jazzed.

You serious? They got these things they call Ore Boats. They come to the docks at Escanaba, Marquette and Duluth. They get loaded and they bring them to points all along the great lakes.

Hopeful the increased output and economy of scale will be such that we can just eliminate some of the minor import players after contracts have expired. They can’t bitch about tariffs if we aren’t even buying from them.

When I hear train whistles, I smell prosperity.

I talked with guys from the Depression who said that when they saw the smokestacks belching black smoke, they were overjoyed, as that meant JOBS.

Still, I love Fries at Geneva on the lake and looking for Erie Jewels.

You’re correct, Lorain is west of Geneva, home of Ch 43 and Super Host LOL

I used to kid my Son that if he wasn’t good I would drop him off on 11 in Amish country...

Hey boy.. see those Mennonite chicks fishing?
