My uncle, fresh out of high school, worked as a dump truck driver when the State widened and paved the McCollough Turnpike west of Appalachian Gap, mid-1950s. That road used to be closed in the winter right at the Mad River Glen entrance on the east side of the Gap. My brother and I were spending a week on the farm in Fayston, so my uncle took us for a ride one evening in the old Chevy pickup to see the construction site. We rode in the back and the wind blew sawdust in our eyes.
Funny how the old memories are fresher than some of the new ones.
