Bobby D. Morrison has vivid memory of Blizzard of March 1960 Ray Morrison, the elder of group, had drivers license and piloted the Morrison Lumber truck with car hood sled in tow. Safe, skillful operation's prevented a collision with a light pole when the rope snapped and averted a real bad disastrophy. It's all here, in this annal of Growing up in the Glory Days on Harveys Ridge and Chance, KY Comments re article 49770 Pat Bennett adds mature account of Bliss Blizzard of 1960 By Bobby D Morrison I very much remember this large snow. We were out of school for several days. I was a Junior in High School. My older brother Ray had his driver's license and was able to drive dad's lumber truck. We were so bored that after a while when the roads were broke on Harvey's Ridge, Chance, KY we improvised a mode for excitement. We took a car hood from Wheat's Mechanics and attached a long rope to the back of the truck. The most exciting part was when Ray was going around a curve with the adjoining field sloping off we were swung out into the field, kind of like a water skier, was exciting until we realized a light pole was between us and the truck. Thankfully, the rope broke before it contacted the light pole and we did not crash. If we had crashed into the light pole we might not be here today to tell the story. --Bobby D Morrison This story was posted on 2012-02-01 21:15:26
