    I am intrigued by the Pekin Ducks eggs. I guess I could drive those fence posts for a taste.

    LOL, too late, we don't have 'em anymore. But yeah, get some, the yolk is twice the size of an xtra large chicken egg, perfect with toast.

    I went and picked up another hundred cedar posts today, rain tomorrow they say. I'll put the point on 'em on Saturday I hope. Get to play John Henry after that. I'm getting too old for this stuff though. Gotta get busy on that sign, "Trade food for work".

    Freight rate discussion thread turns into a chickens and eggs thread LOL

    Anywho, what a beautiful ride today. If it weren't for every reader board telling me to STAY HOME SAVE LIVES, I would have totally forgotten we're evidently on the edge of an apocalypse due to you know what.

    When I see creation like this today in all it's splendor and beauty, it reminds me of just how small I really am.

    Saw the same view this morning about 9:30 heading south. It was unusually clear today, no haze at all. Kind of nice for a change seeing the two sisters unobstructed in all of their glory.

    I've lost count of how many times I have photographed Shasta at around that same spot.

    DAT Review reports that rates continue to rise.

    But the apocalypse is right around the corner.

    Okay, we get it...

    The apocalypse is right around the corner.

    Until then?

    At Blue Beacon getting truck & trailer washed.

    Go inside to pay. BIG signs read ONE PERSON AT COUNTER ONLY!

    Signs showing "proper physical distancing". Blue tape marking 6' separation.

    I'm at the counter paying and another trucker walks up to my side, no less than a couple of feet away from my face, and asks the lady behind the counter "how much a truck wash cost?"

    Welcome to DAT review, where the trendlines are made up and the rates don't actually matter.
