    Waiting in a complete cluster flux to fuel at the Love's in Edon, OH.

    I like to have nearly full tanks when I get to Ham Mound, IN, especially when I go to Georgia. That scale on I-75 north of Atlanta never seems to close. (Resaca? Calhoun? Whatever. You know the one I mean.)

    Just another truckin' day......

    Yet again, another reason Small country community living is amazing...

    Our neighbor who lives about 1/2 mile away also owns the farmyard directly behind us. They raise sheep, pigs, goats, and various other livestock. Every week They get the bread that is past the "Sell By" date for free from The Bread Store in one of the nearby larger towns, they feed it to the livestock. However often times much of the bread is still good. They offered to give us some of it whenever we wanted some. Twice now we have accepted the offer... Both times they have brought nearly enough to fill my small chest freezer. All kinds of bread... White, wheat, sourdough, potatoe, 12 grain, rye... You name it, even the occasional box of doughnuts or pastries. As a family with small children we go through alot of bread... PB&J or meat sandwiches, toast with most any meal, and an easy snack for the little ones. So having such a resource as all the free bread we can handle, and neighbors willing to share is awesome.

    Great gesture on the bread stores part, and even more on the neighbors to you.
    Good people there in IF apparently, not so much in some parts of our country.
    Tragedy in the police action there yesterday, two families lives ruined just like that.
    update us on the "Baby" soon.
