    They say we're in a "2nd wave" right now but I'm not sure I agree. We've had a small spike in daily new cases. But, we only have 117 in hospital and 11 in ICU. We're talking a province with nearly 4.5 million people. I'd say we're doing ok so far.

    We’re beebopping along at about 600 cases a day, state of 1.8 million. That’s about where it was at the peak, but still going to take a long time to get everyone through this.

    I know all trucks built by Paccar for Australia are still tested at technical center in Mt. Vernon, Washington.

    They're sending you one so you can evaluate the cup holders!

    Weird thing about logistics is it's weird. Could have been going to a rail yard to get loaded on a train going back west to the ports, or for that matter going to Europe, depending on exactly what is sold where.

    Maybe heading to Indianapolis (Allison) or Marshall, Mi (Eaton Testing Center) to get a real transmission!
