The scrappies have killed a lot of the good bone yards. Someone passes on, the jackals show up and offer a couple thousand cash to the family to clean out the whole yard and it all goes to the crusher Used to be a lot of old logging bone yards in the bush around here, stuff back to steam engines pretty much. Same deal..
Where our deer camp is in Pennsylvania, there used to be an oil well and pumping station up on top of the mountain. It was powered by one of those huge single cyllinder hit and miss engines that ran off the crude oil it was pumping. Dad used to still hunt up to that station and mooch a coffee off the old grease monkey and visit with him for a while. All the equipment is long gone. If you didn't know it had been there and walked through there today you'd never know it existed. Every bit of it hauled out by the scrappers.
