Richie Janes liming steep slopes of Wolf Creek Dam in 1982 The truck was a 1967 Chevrolet Sandy Janes writes: Ed, Richie said the truck model is 1967 Chevrolet. He spread this at Wolf Creek Dam in June 1982. I found the paper the picture was in. It quoted: A real leaner. Richie Janes of Gradyville says he'll do anything for a dollar and that includes taking a truck and spreading fertilizer on the forty plus degree slopes of Wolf Creek Dam on Lake Cumberland, which he was doing Monday afternoon. Janes, who owns JanesFertilizer and Farm Supply, said that he couldn't get any of his drivers to do the hazardous chore, so he had to do it himself.
