    Found out a feller lost his foot today at the mill I've been running to this week.

    They were down for something and some how he slipped and his foot went into a running auger and took it and the boot off.

    This Rio international airport totally sucks. Not one bus or shuttle van out of here... It's taxi cabs or Uber... cabs are super expensive n I don't use Uber.... :angry1:
    Many years ago there used to be nice big buses with air conditioner all the way to south zone Rio n even further south.... after the pandemic there nothing...
    And the traffic from here to downtown Rio is impossible right now... I'm sitting here n waiting....

    But I took a free ride in the electric train.... seriously... never took that thing before... got in... sat down, nobody in there said anything... saw folks had a card they would touch the card reader on the pole... I didn't know... :biggrin_25512:

    Not many people in the international airport.... :biggrin_25512:. Because of the pandemic, there are no "gringos" coming in...

    Any of yall familiar with the ag exemption?

    I know it's 150 air miles from the source either loading or unloading there

    But what I'm trying to figure out is if you have to be unladen before using it again once you go past the radius limit.

    Example:

    Loading Jonesboro, AR to Meta, MO
    Reloading Mexico, MO to Corning, AR

    Just south of Rolla, MO is the end of the 150 mile circle from Jonesboro.
    At that point one would have to start logging, unless you can run under the next sources 150 mile radius exemption which would overlap the original 150 miles.

    The bottom cross hair is Jonesboro, AR, middle is Meta, MO, and top is Mexico, MO. Corning is at the state line just below Poplar Bluff, MO

    The way I interpret it is you have to be empty before being able to run on the next 150 miles ag exemption radius.

    Meaning run Jonesboro to South of Rolla exempt.
    Log from Rolla to Meta.
    Once in Meta go back off duty and unload and then continue to Mexico under the exemption, reload and then run the 150 air miles back south to Willow Springs which is where you would have to start logging again.

    I don’t think I’ve ever seen an airport that deserted.
