    Don't be sad. Smile. =)

    I like a little fun these days.

    I just don't know how to play well. It's a form of horseplay that might get rough, however the spirit of fun is there. No harm.

    I can remember seeing her in Pomona. I am glad she has been restored. Many of the behemoth dinosaurs have diappeared to the cutting torch.

    Good night all. Past my bedtime.

    I'm getting too old to be rough. Learned the 'hard' way with the 'wannabes' that broke MY thread.

    Off to bed for my 'later than' midnight run.

    Hope all is well with Ms. @Rocks .. I sure didn't get to her thread yet, and eyes are closing for the rest of my split bed berth...

    Talk soon, guys! All in fun, man.

    I loaded in Twenty Nine Palms this morning after spending the night outside the base. It got chilly enough I broke out my sleeping bag as a top comforter.

    Delivered two Humvees and a short trailer in Bridgeport as the sun was going down. Backed up to a ramp and a TOUR BUS full of Marines arrived to help take off chains, binders, and bungles (I bungie my snap binders to make sure they don't pop open). From hitting the dock to pulling out with everything stowed was 30 minutes.

    Dead headed back south to Bishop to take a 10 next to my favorite grocery store. I was told to call the backhaul dispatcher when I'm ready to roll, but rumor has it I will boogie back to Fontana to swap the flatbed for a lowboy, then get to Camp Pendleton to load out another amphibious assault vehicle.

    It should get down to freezing when I wake up in Bishop. I tried out the Espar, but it's too hot. Going to leave a vent open and breath some nice chill air tonight.

    I wore long sleeves today. I normally wear short sleeves and use an old sock with the toe cut out on my left arm to avoid "trucker arm".

    I need to play around with my heat settings. Today at 60°F running north, with the afternoon sun beating into the cab, I had to have the front vents on air conditioning, but the heat turned up to half.

    I actually wore pants to work tonight. Would have been okay in shorts but didn't want to take any chances.
