I took a different road and after heading down what turned out to be a dead end, I passed by this. I grew up around trucks like this and I like running across them, even when they look like this. This one looks to be from the early 1960s.
This old MG convertible and mannequin have been a roadside curiosity for as long as I can remember. They’re located in front of the old Workmore School. You might not call it art, but in lieu of a better description, that’s what I call it.
This was the commercial center of what was once known as Summit. It merged in 1920 with the adjacent town of Graymont to become Twin City.

Turn off Highway 122 onto John Deere Street in Pavo and you’ll see an amazing tractor salvage yard (featuring numerous brands).
There are antique and vintage tractors and parts as far as the eye can see, all nicely lined up in rows.
It’s practically an open-air museum of the tractors that your grandfather and great-grandfather may have used on their farm.
This is the home of T & H Sales & Salvage and if you like tractors you’ll be amazed. Just enjoy them from the road; no trespassing is permitted.
Sometimes, an old barn and an old school bus are all you need for a good photograph. This was taken near Coochee Creek Road and the license plate on the bus was dated 1983.
The front end and engine of this bus were built by Studebaker. Quincy Webb suggests that the body was likely manufactured by Bluebird in Fort Valley.
The grill style dates the bus to around 1947, but it was likely used well into the 1950s by Ben Hill County.
This truck is circa 1947. Calvin Moser suggests this is the M-16 model.
