    ####. That sucks. I would be pissed five ways from Sunday. Do they have cameras around the yard? Never really looked for them.

    Yeah that place does suck. If going to American Canyon have fun that place is out there and can't stay on property.
    Best way to dry it I have found was cranking the temp as high as it will go and let her run.

    Be no way I would let them charge me for it. Either find the driver that did or bill it to insurance as hit and run. But not out my pocket (maintenance fund).

    Exit 142 on 40 Council Rd south to 15th turn right first trailer lot on right. It's Freymiller's yard. Not sure about leaving p.v. there though.

    FYI you can normally get them to let you split it off in Colton if running early. Had that load 3 times and dropped it twice. LoL

    I think that's what they was going to do. Body shop had already done the estimate and he took it upstairs to the lady up there and he's supposed to hear back from them to find out which route they are going.

    I doubt I will be early enough for a drop. I am running recaps til I take home time in early Oct. But, if I am, I will see about getting the drop.

    This Ole Southern Boy and his Mule sure do like New England. These folks up here in Boston are so nice and I thought the roads and turns would be tricky the way folks tell. But they're not. You just set Ole Sal to Slow Plow and the people all just fly right on by and them turns ain't so bad when you just take up all the room you need pokin' along real slow. Got an inch or two on either side to spare even in the tunnel under the city. How about that? A tunnel UNDER the whole city. Can't go wrong gettin' off anywhere there cause there's a big wall all around you.

    That fellow at the Produce Market Gate was real nice too and told me I could park anywhere I wanted to cause I had a special Pass. Paid $25 for it and it says I can go anywhere in this whole market I want to and stay as long as I want to. Real nice fellow at the dock too. He's only gonna charge me $80 to unload the stuff his boss ordered. Don't know why they call him a lumper, though. Where I'm from lumpin' a load means you carried it. He just used a forklift to take it off like everybody else does but he was real friendly and nice about gettin' a check for it.

    Rush hour from Boston on the way to Jersey wasn't near as bad as folks make out either. It went nice and slow. Everybody being safe and all cause there was so many people. They all had real fine words for me too. They must'a really needed them onions I brought from Nevada cause they was all giving me the "number one" sign and "fist pumps" from the younger ones as I squeezed Ole Sal into their lane real easy like. Nice of them blowin' their horns to let me know it was OK.

    YUP. Me and Sal (my mule - she's named after a real famous one; she's a good ole worker and a good ole Pal) had a real nice experience here in New England Produce Sector.

    NOW WE WANT OUT > > > > > >!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I miss the desert. I miss not seeing people for hours . . . . Tonopah Times-Bonanza headline story:

    Marshall pleads guilty to taking down opponent's campaign signs and is fined $250,

    OUT, OUT ,OUT

    I'm OK now I made it to Sturbridge where fuel is down to $4.01, there are two parking places and cigarettes only cost $8.00 a pack so all is OK now.

    Gotta love New England!

    Nite Sal. You done real good today.

    Yeah you gotta love that corner of the US. Them there people always be waving a nice 1 finger wave everytime you do something and when you wave back with all fingers up they get quite red in the face and scream past you. Think I agree with you keep me out in no where and I would be as happy as a clam. Oh be glad you didn't get to go into the harbor area. Them folks are so nice they park right up to the corners there. LoL
